Love Divine
Author: G. E. B. Meter: 8.7.8.7 D with refrain Appears in 6 hymnals Scripture: John 3:16 First Line: It was love that sent a Savior Refrain First Line: Love so divine Lyrics: 1 It was love that sent a Savior
To this world of sin and woe;
It was love that left heav’n’s portals,
And came down to dwell below;
It was love that stilled the waters
On the stormy Galilee;
It was love that paid sin’s ransom,
One dark day on Calvary.
Refrain:
Love so divine,
Love so sublime,
Love that is deeper than any sea;
Love for us all, oh, how can it be!
2 It was love that heard my pleadings
When I cried out in my sin;
It was love that gave me comfort;
It was love that took me in;
It was love that whispered softly,
“I will never cast you out”;
It was love that eased my heartache;
It was love removed my doubt. [Refrain]
3 It is love that still is knocking
At the hearts of sinful men;
It is love that never tires,
But that knocks and knocks again;
It is love that solves all problems
In this world of care and strife;
It is love, the love of Jesus,
That gives hope, and peace, and life. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [It was love that sent a Savior] Text Sources: Timeless Truths (http://library.timelesstruths.org/music/Love_Divine)

Mark How the Lamb of God's Self-Offering
Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr. (1944-) Meter: 9.8.9.8 D Appears in 6 hymnals Scripture: John 3:14-21 Lyrics: 1 Mark how the Lamb of God's self-offering
our human sinfulness takes on
in the birth-waters of the Jordan
as Jesus is baptized by John.
Hear how the voice from heaven thunders,
"Lo, this is my beloved Son."
See how in dovelike form the Spirit
descends on God's Anointed One.
2 From this assurance of God's favour
Jesus goes to the wilderness,
there to endure a time of testing
preparing him to teach and bless.
So we, by water and the Spirit
baptized into Christ's ministry,
are often led to paths of service
through mazes of adversity.
3 Grant us, O God, the strength and courage
to live the faith our lips declare;
bless us in our baptismal calling;
Christ's royal priesthood help us share.
Turn us from every false allegiance,
that we may trust in Christ alone:
raise up in us a chosen people
transformed by love to be your own. Topics: Baptism of Jesus Used With Tune: RENDEZ À DIEU

Con gratitud y con cantos
por siempre le alabaré. [Coro]

Free Gift
Author: John Relly Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 5 hymnals Scripture: John 3:16 First Line: 'Tis not of him that weeps and prays Lyrics: 1 'Tis not of him that weeps and prays;
The gift of God is free;
'Tis Jesus' pray'r, his groans and cries,
That shall accepted be.
2 'Tis in the Lamb's abasement low,
We are receiv'd of God:
Lo! nothing is there good we know,
But Jesus, and his blood.
3 'Tis thro' his death, and off'ring up
On the accursed wood,
That we are privileg'd to sup
With him our Lord, and God.
4 'Tis thro' his resurrection pow'r
We live the life of faith:
In his dear body, we are more
Than conq'rors over death.
5 When he ascended up on high,
Lo! we ascended then;
He captive led captivity,
Receiving gifts for men.
6 Yea, for rebellious men he su'd,
That God with them might dwell;
And when his wounded form he shew'd,
The spirit on them fell.
7 All praise to him, our God, our friend,
Who finish'd all for us;
We bless the love, which hath no End,
Revealed on the cross.
