1 In the beginning of our redemption,
Mercy and love came freely to earth;
Angels descended, singing the message,
Singing of Jesus and His birth.
Refrain:
O what a Savior, wonderful Savior,
Coming to earth to suffer for me.
O what a Savior! wonderful Savior,
Pleading in glory now for thee!
2 Then in the garden, all night in anguish,
Weeping and praying, praying for all,
That He might suffer death and the judgment,
Suffer to save us from the fall. [Refrain]
3 Then on Mount Calv’ry, Jesus was smitten,
Smitten to suffer, bleed, and to die;
Hear Him repeating, Father, forgive them,
Father, forgive them! hear Him cry. [Refrain]
4 Then He was buried, sealed by the Romans,
For He had promised that He would rise;
Hark! to the message: Christ hath arisen,
Risen from death and gone on high. [Refrain]
5 Jesus is coming, tell the glad story;
Jesus is coming down from the sky;
We shall behold Him coming in glory;
Jesus is coming by and by. [Refrain]
