Sacred Songs and Solos Lyrics
Hymn No.142
First Line: Nothing either great or small—,
Nothing either great or small—
Nothing, sinner, no;
Jesus did it, did it all,
Long, long ago.
It is finished !yes, indeed,
Finished every jot :
Sinner, this is all you need—
Tell me, is it not ?
2 When He, from His lofty throne,
Stooped to do and die.
Everything was fully done:
Hearken to His cry.
3 Weary, working, burdened one,
Wherefore toil you so ?
Cease your doing ; all was done
Long, long ago.
4 Till to Jesus' work you cling
By a simple faith,
“Doing is a deadly thing—
“Doing ends in death.
5 Cast your deadly
doing down —
Down at Jesus' feet;
Stand in Him, in Him alone,
Gloriously complete.
