Hymn Stanzas of the Week: Not What These Hands Have Done

Not What These Hands Have Done (TLH 389)
Horatius Bonar, stanzas 1 and 3

Not what these hands have done can save this guilty soul;
Not what this toiling flesh has borne can make my spirit whole.

Thy work alone, O Christ, can ease this weight of sin;
Thy blood alone, O Lamb of God, can give me peace within.
