104 8.3. J. Hart
Righteousness Imputed. Rom. 3. 22, 25; 4. 24; 2 Cor. 5. 19
1
Righteousness to the believer,
 
Freely given, comes from heaven,
 
God himself the giver.
2
Christ has wrought this mighty wonder;
 
God and man by him can
 
Meet, and never sunder.
3
All the law in human nature
 
He fulfilled; reconciled
 
Creature and Creator.
4
Every one, without exemption,
 
That believes, now receives
 
Absolute redemption.
5
[Robes of righteousness imputed,
 
White and whole, clothe the soul,
 
Each exactly suited.]
6
’Tis a way of God’s own finding;
 
’Tis his act, and the pact
 
Cannot but be binding.
7
Here is no prevarication;
 
Justice stands, and demands
 
Full and free salvation.
