239. To us our God His love commends

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--
Fr this His brethren pray;
The whole creation for it groans,
Come, Lord, without delay.
