49. Oh, What a Savior That He Died for Me

P.M.
1
Oh, what a Savior that He died for me!
 
From condemnation He hath made me free;
 
"He that believeth on the Son," saith He,
 
"Hath everlasting life."
 
"Verily, verily, I say unto you,"
 
"Verily, verily," message ever new;
 
"He that believeth on the Son," ’tis true,
 
"Hath everlasting life."
2
All my iniquities on Him were laid,
 
All my indebtedness by Him was paid;
 
All who believe on Him, the Lord hath said,
 
Have "everlasting life."
3
Though poor and needy, I can trust my Lord;
 
Though weak and sinful, I believe His word;
 
Oh, blessed message! every child of God
 
"Hath everlasting life."
4
Though all unworthy, yet I will not doubt,
 
For him that cometh He will not cast out;
 
"He that believeth" — oh, the good news shout!
 
"Hath everlasting life."
