He rose for our justification.

TO-DAY the Savior rose, Our Jesus left the dead, He conquered our malignant foes, And Satan captive led.

He left his glorious throne, To make our peace with God; Blessings forever on his name, He bought us with his blood.

For us his life he paid, For us the law fulfilled; On him our load of guilt was laid; We by his stripes are healed.

Ye saints adore his name, Who hath such mercy shown; Ye sinners, love the bleeding Lamb And make his praises known.
