Lyrics

O the won­drous pow’r of the Sav­ior’s love
Unto sin­ners is now re­vealed;
Every ling’­ring pain Jesus can re­move;
Praise the Lord, by His stripes we are healed.

Refrain

By His stripes we are healed,
By His stripes we are healed
On His guilt­less head
All our sins were laid;
By His stripes we are healed.

There in Pi­late’s hall see the Guilt­less One:
How the hearts of His foes were steeled
’Gainst the Gift of God, His be­lov­èd Son!
Praise the Lord, by His stripes we are healed.

Refrain

His aton­ing blood still av­ails to­day:
For the king­dom be saved and sealed;
In the op­ened fount wash thy sins away—
Praise the Lord, by His stripes we are healed.

Refrain

Turn, O turn from sin, let the Sav­ior in;
Bow the heart, in con­tri­tion yield
To the Spir­it’s pow’r this ac­cept­ed hour:
Praise the Lord, by His stripes we are healed.
