51*. Oh What a Gift the Father Gave | C.M. |
|
|
| | |
|
| 1 | Oh what a gift the Father gave | Romans 8:3 |
| When He bestowed His Son! |
| To save poor, ruined, guilty man, |
| By sin defiled, undone. |
|
| 2 | For I was lost and vile indeed! | Luke 19:10; 1 Thessalonians 5:5 |
| To sin a willing prey, |
| Till God in mercy interposed, |
| And turned my night to day. |
|
| 3 | Now I can call the Saviour mine, | Song of Solomon 2:16; Song of Solomon 6:3; Luke 15:21; 1 Peter 1:19; Exodus 12:13 |
| Though all unworthy still; |
| I'm sheltered by His precious blood |
| Beyond the reach of ill. |
|
| 4 | Come, all who trust in Jesus, now, | John 3:16 |
| And tell our joys abroad; |
| Let thankful hymns of praise ascend |
| For Christ the gift of God. |
