209. NOW IT IS DONE

Previous
Next

​Author:  Gerhard Tersteegen (1697-1769)​
​Composer:  Louis Bourgeois (1510-1560)​

​  1. Now it is accomplished! I’m no longer mine;
      Lord, I will forever and always be Thine,
      For Thou hast created and purchased me too,
      Baptized with Thy Spirit, Thou makest me new.
 
  2. Now it is accomplished! My freedom is gone,
      As I am a captive of God and His Son;
      What freedom! O, I was by Satan enslav’d
      To do his ill bidding; but now I am saved.
 
  3. Now it is accomplished! I now become free;
      From sin and transgression redeemed I shall be;
      The prince of this world, he enslaveth his own,
      A Christian thro’ Christ has his liberty won.
 
  4. Now it is accomplished! Ye passions depart!
      A temple for Jesus shall now be my heart.
      O kind, loving Shepherd, Thou heavenly Guest,
      Thou bringest me comfort where I was oppressed.
 
  5. Now it is accomplished! My soul He hath healed;
      A portion in heaven to me He hath sealed.
      O, may He direct me through joy and through ill;
      I’ll never forsake Him, but follow Him still.
 
  6. Now it is accomplished, O covenant blest!
      His will on my heart and my tongue is impressed;
      To speak or keep silence as He shall command,
      With prayer and with worship before Him to stand.
 
  7. Ah, now it is done! Now I live unto Thee;
      My Light and my Life, Oh, abide Thou with me!
      To follow Thee ever shall be my sole aim
      Thro’ shade or thro’ sunshine, thro’ honor or shame.
 
  8. Ah, now it is done! Now I fear not to die,
      For death hath no terrors when Jesus is nigh.
      The body from pain and from labor hath rest;
      The spirit soars up to the home of the blest.
 
  9. Now it is accomplished! Though deep in my soul
      I fear lest in weakness I stray from the goal;
      Yet I will not waver, my Saviour is kind;
      I trust in His mercy; thus courage I find.
 
10. Now it is accomplished! With heart and with mind
      To thee, my dear Saviour, I now am resigned!
      I’ll ever be faithful in life and in death,
      Abiding in Jesus unto my last breath.

Special thanks to the Apostolic Christians who diligently labored to keep their rich musical heritage alive when most other denominations forsook it in the challenging battle of changing cultures.
​
Thanks be to those souls who labored to write and compose this treasure of praise, many now only known to GOD!

Above all, thanks, praise, and glory be to GOD!
