诗歌： O Christ, what burdens bow'd Thy head

O Christ, what burdens bow'd Thy head!
  Our load was laid on Thee;
Thou stoodest in the sinner's stead,
  Didst bear all ill for me.
A victim led; Thy blood was shed;
  Now there's no load for me.

Death and the curse were in our cup,
  O Christ, 'twas full for Thee!
But Thou hast drained the last dark drop—
  ’Tis empty now for me.
That bitter cup—love drank it up;
  Now blessings' draught for me.

Jehovah lifted up His rod,
  O Christ, it fell on Thee!
Thou wast sore stricken of Thy God;
  There's not one stroke for me.
Thy tears, Thy blood, beneath it flowed;
  Thy bruising healeth me.

The tempest's awful voice was heard,
  O Christ, it broke on Thee!
Thy open bosom was my ward,
  It braved the storm for me.
Thy form was scarred, Thy visage marred;
  Now cloudless peace for me.

Jehovah bade His sword awake,
  O Christ, it woke 'gainst Thee!
Thy blood the flaming blade must slake;
  Thy heart its sheath must be—
All for my sake, my peace to make;
  Now sleeps that sword for me.

For me, Lord Jesus, Thou hast died,
  And I have died in Thee;
Thou'rt ris'n: my bands are all untied,
  And now Thou liv'st in me.
When purified, made white, and tried,
  Thy glory then for me!

C. Consummated with Better Sacrifices

and the Blood That Speaks Better Things

Hebrews 9:23 says, “It was necessary therefore for the examples of the things in the heavens to be purified by these, but the heavenly things themselves, by better sacrifices than these. ”

The new covenant was consummated with better sacrifices and with the blood that speaks better things. Christ offered Himself as one sacrifice (v. 14 ; 10:12). This one sacrifice, viewed from its various aspects, can be considered many sacrifices. As Christ is the eternal Son of the living God incarnated to be the Son of Man, and as He offered Himself to God through the eternal Spirit, so His sacrifices, which are Himself, are better than the animal sacrifices. Those were shadows that could never remove sins (v. 11), but His sacrifices are real and have put away sin once for all (9:26). Thus He obtained an eternal redemption for us (v. 12). Verse 22 says that “without shedding of blood there is no forgiveness. ” Without forgiveness of sin there is no way for the requirement of God’s righteousness to be fulfilled that the covenant may be enacted. But Christ’s blood was shed for the forgiveness of sin, and the covenant was enacted with His blood (Matt. 26:28). We are told in Hebrews 12:24 that Christ’s blood “speaks something better than that of Abel. ” The blood of Christ is the speaking blood, speaking to God for forgiveness, justification, reconciliation, and redemption. As unveiled in Hebrews, this precious blood speaks to God for us that by it the new covenant may be enacted. Hence, it is called the blood of the eternal covenant (10:29 ; 13:20).

Message 41 (LSM)

The Coats of Skin with Which

Adam and Eve Were Clothed

The coats of skin that were used as a covering for Adam and Eve are the first indication in type of God’s promised redemption. When man fell, God not only spoke of the promise of the seed of the woman (Gen. 3:15), but He also clothed Adam and Eve with coats of skin (v. 21). Initially, Adam and Eve were sinless and not ashamed of their nakedness (2:25). However, after they sinned and fell, they were ashamed of their nakedness. Although they sewed fig leaves together and made loincloths for themselves (3:7), this could not cover their shame and sinfulness. Therefore, God made coats of skin to clothe and cover them.

The coats of skin must have involved the shedding of the blood of a slain sacrifice. Adam and Eve had both eaten the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, and according to God’s commandment, they should have died that day (2:17). However, a sacrifice was killed, and its blood was shed in their place for the forgiveness of sins (Heb. 9:22). Thus, the skin of this sacrifice became a covering for their sin so that they could live before God.

God’s making coats of skin typifies His making the Lord Jesus our righteousness so that in Him we could be justified before God (1 Cor. 1:30; Rom. 3:24 ; Phil. 3:9). In the fulfillment of this type the Lord Jesus was slain, and His blood was shed for us. Then He became our righteousness so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him (2 Cor. 5:21).

Cursed is every man that does not complete every letter of the law. This curse was on us as defiled sinners. Christ became cursed because He bore our sins. Christ drank this cup of suffering and wrath for us, every drop. Selah. Thank you Lord 🙏

I learned this hymn while in England doing some mission work. I learned many new hymns from the Redemption Hymnal that I love, but this is my favorite one that I learned. I learned it with a different tune than is the one written in the hymnal and like that tune better. Does anyone know how I can find the piano music for the different tune?

This is perhaps, my favourite hymn. It goes deep into my soul. It is simply amazing what our Redeemer went through for us on the cross. I could never fathom the depths of such love. He was smitten by the rod of Jehovah. He was pierced by his awful sword. All for my sake. THANK YOU, LORD JESUS!

This is my favourite hymn. Today's Gospel writers pale in comparison to the hymn lyricist.

A young officer in the British army turned away in horror from the doctrine of this hymn. His pride revolted, his self-righteousness rose in rebellion, and he said: “He would be a coward indeed who would go to heaven at the cost of another!” As the years rolled away this man rose to distinction and high rank in the army, and he also learned wisdom. In his last hours, as he lay on his deathbed, he repeatedly begged those near him to sing “O Christ, what burdens bowed Thy head,” calling it, “My hymn, my hymn!” - Sankey's Story of the Gospel Hymns

"That bitter cup -- love drank it up; now blessings draught for me." How can one improve upon that? Unfortunately we in our church never sang this hymn, but our pastor, Al Martin quoted it the first time (for us) during his preaching through Mark's Gospel when he got to the part about Jesus being in the garden of Gethsemane (Mk. 14:36) and a few times after that during his sermons. Also, someone in the church had it printed on fancy paper and I got a copy of it to read some years ago. I was happy to find it here as I lost my copy of it.

What a blessing!
