239. To Us Our God His Love Commends

C.M.
by J. Stennett
1
To us our God His love commends,
 
When by our sins undone;
 
That He might spare His enemies,
 
He would not spare His Son;
2
His only Son, on whom was placed
 
His whole delight and love,
 
Before He formed the earth below,
 
Or spread the heavens above.
3
Our sorrows and our guilt to bear,
 
Our judgment to sustain;
 
He came, upon the tree to die,
 
That we might life obtain.
4
His Word assures He’ll quickly come,
 
For this His brethren pray;
 
The whole creation for it groans,
 
Come, Lord, without delay!
