My Substitute returning not

10/27/2025
My Substitute returning not,
How could my worries be restrained?
Have my great sins such trouble brought?
Has He not saved, but been detained?
Were my transgressions, sins, too great?
My sins too many to forgive?
Was His dear blood inadequate,
Too limited to clearance give?
Rejoice! For Jesus rose again!
Unharmed! His glory was increased!
His passage through the dark domain
Could not affect Him in the least!
Christ’s resurrection surely shows
God’s righteousness is satisfied!
What mercy God’s great love bestows!
Redeeming work has been applied!
When Christ His own blood shed for me,
God raised Him, showing His accord!
Affirming Christ’s work righteously!
I’m cleansed! Forgiven! Praise the Lord!
