Let us sing of the love of the Lord, As now to the cross we draw nigh; Let us sing to the praise Of the God of all grace, For the love that gave Jesus to die.
Refrain: Oh, the love that gave Jesus to die, The love that gave Jesus to die; Praise God, it is mine, This love so divine, The love that gave Jesus to die.
Oh, how great was the love that was shown To us—we can never tell why— Not to angels, but men; Let us praise Him again For the love that gave Jesus to die.
Now this love unto all God commends, Not one would His mercy pass by: “Whosoever shall call”— There is pardon for all In the love that gave Jesus to die.
Who is he that can separate those Whom God doth in love justify? Whatsoever we need He includes in the deed, In the love that gave Jesus to die.
