Verse 1
God in mercy sent His Son To a world by sin undone;
Jesus Christ was crucified— ’Twas for sinners Jesus died.
Jesus Christ was crucified— ’Twas for sinners Jesus died.
Verse 2
Sin and death no more shall reign, Jesus died, and lives again!
In the glory’s highest height, See Him, God’s supreme delight.
In the glory’s highest height, See Him, God’s supreme delight.
Verse 3
All who in His name believe Everlasting life receive;
Lord of all is Jesus now, Ev’ry knee to Him must bow.
Lord of all is Jesus now, Ev’ry knee to Him must bow.
Verse 4
Christ the Lord will come again, He who suffered once will reign,
Ev’ry tongue at last will own, “Jesus Christ is Lord” alone.
Ev’ry tongue at last will own, “Jesus Christ is Lord” alone.
Refrain
Oh, the glory of the grace, Shining in the Saviour’s face!
Telling sinners from above, “God is light” and “God is love,”
Telling sinners from above, “God is light” and “God is love.”
Telling sinners from above, “God is light” and “God is love,”
Telling sinners from above, “God is light” and “God is love.”
