Jesus has to earth descended,
Here to suffer, bleed and die;
Jesus sinners has befriended,
Sinners such as you and I;
Love amazing!
Let the joyful tidings fly.
Soon again He’ll come from heaven,
And the morning draweth nigh,
When He’ll take His saints to glory,
And among them you and I,
If to Jesus,
We, through grace, have been brought nigh.
Yes, believing on the Saviour,
We shall meet Him in the sky;
Sinners saved shall crowd around Him,
Sinners such as you and I;
Come, ye children,
To the cross for refuge fly.
