Value Beyond All Thought

I came across this part of a Puritan prayer yesterday.  I thought it was too good not to share.
Thy blood is the blood of incarnate God, its worth infinite, its value beyond all thought.  Infinite must be the evil and guilt that demands such a price.  Yet thy compassions yearn over me, thy heart hastens to my rescue, thy love endured my curse, thy mercy bore my deserved stripes.  Let me walk humbly in the lowest depths of humiliation, bathed in thy blood, triumphing gloriously as an heir of salvation.
