         Behold, how pleasant, how good and delightful,
    When Brethren are dwelling together, all bonded as one man!
        It's like precious ointment poured upon the head,
    Which runneth over, trickling and flowing upon Aaron's beard,
        And goes down to the skirts of his lovely garments.
    It's like Mount Hermon's dew, as the dew that descended upon
                   the mounts of Zion,
    For there the Lord commands //all HIS grace// and life, eternal.
         369.  CHRIST OUR REDEEMER

             Matt 28,5 PASSIONTl;jiffi5l0RGIVENESS
            Christ our Redeemer, died on the cross,
             Died for the sinner, paid all His due;
            Ail who receive Him, now have His light
           My every sin Christ forgave with His blood.
                      CHORUS
             When the Lord perceives the blood,
              That his Son spilled on the cross,
               In its fountain sinners washed
           All their sins, and HIS blessings obtained.
                         2
             His faithful foll'wers Jesus will save,
              As He has promised, so will He do;
            Oh, sinner, hear Him, trust in His word
            Life everlasting the Lord has prepared.
                         3
             Judgment is coming, all will be there,
             Do not reject Him, forsake Him not;
             Oh, sinner hasten, come to the Lord,
