384. Unworthy Creatures

1 Unworthy creatures, we confess,
Yet not cast down, are we;
For Christ becomes our righteousness,
And bids us joyful be.

2 Upon the cross of Calvary,
He paid the mighty debt,
That He might set His people free
From sin's undone estate.

3 Not only are our sins forgiven,
But we were crucified
To all that keeps our souls from heaven,
When Jesus for us died.

4 The knowledge of the truth makes free
Sin's body is destroyed;
Henceforth in gospel liberty
Our lives shall be employed.
