Who ever lives and pleads for me.

When Satan tempts me to despair

And tells me of the guilt within,

Who made an end to all my sin.

Because a sinless Savior died,

To look on Him and pardon me,

My perfect, spotless Righteousness;

The great, unchangeable I Am;

The King of Glory and of grace.

One in Himself, I cannot die;

My life is hid with Christ on high,
