The New Christian Hymnal ‎#385

385. Who Came Down From Heaven to Earth?

1. Who came down from heav'n to earth?
Jesus Christ our Savior;
Came a child of lowly birth?
Jesus Christ our Savior.

Chorus:
Sound the chorus loud and clear,
He hath brought salvation near;
None so precious, none so dear:
Jesus Christ our Savior.

2. Who was lifted on the cross?
Jesus Christ our Savior;
There to bear all pain and loss?
Jesus Christ our Savior. [Chorus]

3. Who hath promised to forgive?
Jesus Christ our Savior;
Who hath said, "Believe and live?"
Jesus Christ our Savior. [Chorus]

4. Who is now enthroned above?
Jesus Christ our Savior;
Whom should we obey and love?
Jesus Christ our Savior. [Chorus]

5. Who again from heav'n shall come?
Jesus Christ our Savior;
Take to glory all His own?
Jesus Christ our Savior. [Chorus]
