First Line: His the pardon, ours the sin
Last Line: His the agony and strife.
Subject(s): Jesus Christ


His the pardon, ours the sin--
Great the sin, the pardon great;
His the good and ours the ill,
His the love and ours the hate.

Ours the darkness and the gloom,
His the shade-dispelling light;
Ours the cloud and His the sun,
His the dayspring, ours the night.

His the labor, ours the rest,
His the death and ours the life,
Ours the fruits of victory,
His the agony and strife.
