14. God Loved the World of Sinners Lost

C.M.
1
God loved the world of sinners lost
 
And ruined by the fall;
 
Salvation full, at highest cost,
 
He offers free to all.
 
Oh! ’twas love, ’twas wondrous love!
 
The love of God to me;
 
It brought my Savior from above,
 
To die on Calvary.
2
Love brings the glorious fullness in,
 
And to the lost makes known
 
Salvation from the power of sin,
 
Through faith in Christ alone.
3
E’en now by faith I claim Him mine,
 
The risen Son of God;
 
Redemption by His death I find,
 
And cleansing through the blood.
