For our sakes the blessed Saviour
To this world of sorrow came;
For our sakes He bore the judgment,
Dying on the cross of shame.
Children, have you ever told Him
You believe He died for you?
Have you ever really thanked Him
That He paid your sins’ full due?
Precious Saviour! now in glory,
Still He bears that wondrous Name:
Jesus; still the sinners’ Saviour,
Jesus, evermore the Same.
Let your soul delight the Saviour
By submitting to His love;
And in everlasting favor,
You will dwell with Him above.
