147. To Him That Loved Us, Gave Himself

C.M.D.

1
To Him that loved us, gave Himself,
 
And died to do us good,
 
Has washed us from our scarlet sins
 
In His most precious blood;
 
Who made us kings and priests to God
 
His Father infinite:
 
To Him eternal glory be,
 
And everlasting might!

Through Him to God — the God most high — 
 
Praise for all grace be given;
 
Whose gifts through all eternity
 
We’ll gladly sing in heaven;
 
His Christ has loved us, given Himself,
 
And died to do us good,
 
Has washed us from our scarlet sins
 
In His own precious blood.
“Saying, I will declare thy name unto my brethren, in the midst of the church will I sing praise unto thee.” (Hebrews 2:12)
