239. To Us Our God His Love Commends | C.M. |
| by James Stennett |
|
|
| | |
|
| 1 | To us our God His love commends, | Romans 5:8; Romans 5:10; Romans 8:32 |
| When by our sins undone; |
| That He might spare His enemies, |
| He would not spare His Son; |
|
| 2 | His only Son, on whom was placed | Proverbs 8:22-30 |
| His whole delight and love, |
| Before He formed the earth below, |
| Or spread the heavens above. |
|
| 3 | Our sorrows and our guilt to bear, | Isaiah 53:4-6; 1 Peter 2:24; 1 Thessalonians 5:10 |
| Our judgment to sustain; |
| He came, upon the tree to die, |
| That we might life obtain. |
|
| 4 | His Word assures He'll quickly come, | Revelation 22:17,20; Romans 8:22; |
| For this His brethren pray; |
| The whole creation for it groans, |
| Come, Lord, without delay! |
