God so loved the world of sinners,
That His only Son He gave,
Through His blood to give remission,
By His death our souls to save.
How amazing God’s compassion,
That so vile a worm should prove
This stupendous bliss of heaven;
This unmeasured wealth of love.
Jesus, Saviour, I adore Thee,
Now Thy love I would proclaim,
I would tell the blessed story,
I would magnify Thy name.
Soon Thy saints shall rise to meet Thee,
With Thee in Thy Kingdom reign,
Thine the praise, and Thine the glory,
Lamb of God for sinners slain.
