God laid my sins on Jesus,
His spotless, holy Lamb;
Instead of me, God cursed Him;
Now full released I am.
Upon His faultless Lamb, my
Transgressions God did lay,
Made Him in my place suffer,
My debt of sins repay.

My sickness laid on Jesus,
The lash for me endured;
My weaknesses He carried,
That I be fully cured.
I lay my griefs on Jesus;
He bears them all for me;
My sorrows, pains, abolished;
What joy and peace I see!

I now have rest in Jesus,
My King of Righteousness;
His death God satisfied, and
His blood my conscience cleansed.
Now all my trust's in Jesus,
My strength for ev'ry hour;
His living shows God's riches;
His risen life empow'rs.

I hand my heart to Jesus,
That in it He would reign,
To be my Lord and life, and
Make home in me for aye.
I long to be like Jesus,
His image live each day,
In attitude and actions
Him evermore display!

This is based on the hymn by Horatius Bonar:
1 I lay my sins on Jesus,
the spotless Lamb of God;
He bears them all, and frees us
from the accursed load;
I bring my guilt to Jesus,
to wash my crimson stains
white in His blood most precious,
till not a spot remains.
-------
2 I lay my wants on Jesus;
all fullness dwells in Him;
He heals all my diseases,
He doth my soul redeem;
I lay my griefs on Jesus,
my burdens and my cares;
He from them all releases,
He all my sorrow shares.
------------
3 I rest my soul on Jesus,
this weary soul of mine;
His right hand me embraces,
I on His breast recline.
I love the Name of Jesus,
Immanuel, Christ, the Lord;
like fragrance on the breezes
His Name abroad is poured.
---------
4 I long to be like Jesus,
meek, loving, lowly, mild;
I long to be like Jesus,
the Father's holy Child;
I long to be with Jesus
amid the heav'nly throng,
to sing with saints His praises,
to learn the angels' song.

When we appreciate what the Lord has done for us personally we begin to respond like this:
I give my heart to Jesus,
That there He’d be enthroned
To be my Lord and life, and
In me to make His home.
According to His pattern
I hope to live each day;
His attitude and actions
May He through me display!

Beautiful/Awesome hymn, our Lord is worthy of our praise. Thank you for posting this amazing hymn, I did not know the tune for “Stand up, stand up for Jesus” can be use in another song. God bless you all!!
