2. When Satan tempts me to despair,

and tells me of the guilt within,

upward I look and see him there

who made an end of all my sin.

Because the sinless Savior died,

my sinful soul is counted free;

for God the Just is satisfied

to look on him and pardon me,

to look on him and pardon me.

3. Behold him there! The risen Lamb,

my perfect, spotless righteousness;

the great unchangeable I AM,

the King of glory and of grace!

One with himself I cannot die,

my soul is purchased by his blood;

my life is hid with Christ on high,

with Christ, my Savior and my God,

with Christ, my Savior and my God.
