All ye that pass by,
To Jesus draw nigh:
To you is it nothing that Jesus should die?
CHORUS:
Your ransom and peace,
Your surety He is:
Come, see if there ever was sorrow like His.
For what you have done
His blood must atone:
The Father hath punished for you His dear Son.
CHORUS:
The Lord, in the day
Of His anger, did lay
Your sins on the Lamb, and He bore them away.
CHORUS:
He answered for all:
O come at His call,
And low at His cross with astonishment fall!
CHORUS
Ye all may receive
The peace He did leave,
Who made intercession, “My Father, forgive!”
CHORUS:
