Is Jesus atoned for us?

The third stanza of the hymn *The Breaking Of Bread* states the following (emphasis added): > Our Savior now doth reign in heav’n above; death's power he overcame, such matchless love; to heav’n he did ascend, there he’s enthroned; he is our dearest friend, **for us atoned**. It sounds somewhat strange to say that Jesus was atoned. Perhaps I'm confused, but aren't *our sins*, rather than Jesus Himself, the things that are atoned (i.e., forgiven). As for Jesus, isn't He the atoner rather than the "atonee," so to speak? Or am I misunderstanding what it means to be atoned?
