This hymn has a unique tune.

 
 1 

Nothing either great or small —

Nothing, sinner, no;

Jesus did it, did it all,

Long, long ago.

 

"It is finished!" yes, indeed,

Finished every jot:

Sinner, this is all you need —

Tell me, is it not?

 
 2 

When He, from His lofty throne,

Stooped to do and die,

Everything was fully done;

Hearken to His cry:

 

"It is finished!" yes, indeed,

Finished every jot:

Sinner, this is all you need —

Tell me, is it not?

 
 3 

Weary, working, burdened one,

Wherefore toil you so?

Cease your doing; all was done

Long, long ago.

 

"It is finished!" yes, indeed,

Finished every jot:

Sinner, this is all you need —

Tell me, is it not?

 
 4 

Till to Jesus' work you cling

By a simple faith,

"Doing" is a deadly thing —

"Doing" ends in death.

 

"It is finished!" yes, indeed,

Finished every jot:

Sinner, this is all you need —

Tell me, is it not?

 
 5 

Cast your deadly "doing" down —

Down at Jesus' feet;

Stand in Him, in Him alone,

Gloriously complete.

 

"It is finished!" yes, indeed,

Finished every jot:

Sinner, this is all you need —

Tell me, is it not?
