47A. God in mercy sent His Son

1 God in mercy sent His Son
To a world by sin undone;
Jesus Christ was crucified--
'Twas for sinners Jesus died.

Refrain:
Oh the glory of the grace
Shining in the Saviour's face!
Telling sinners from above,
"God is light," and "God is love."

2 Sin and death no more shall reign,
Jesus died and lives again@
In the glory's highest height--
See Him God's supreme delight. [Refrain]

3 All who in His name believe,
Everlasting life receive;
Lord of all is Jesus now,
Ev'ry knee to Him must bow. [Refrain]

4 Christ the Lord will come again,
He who suffered once will reign,
Ev'ry tongue at last shall own,
"Worthy is the Lamb" alone. [Refrain]
