God Loved Us, So He Sent His Son

Author: Edward P. Kimball, 1882–1937 Appears in 3 hymnals Topics: God the Father; Grace; Jesus Christ Savior; Love; Plan of Salvation; Sacrament Lyrics: 1. God loved us, so he sent his Son, Christ Jesus, the atoning One, To show us by the path he trod The one and only way to God. 2. He came as man, though Son of God, And bowed himself beneath the rod. He died in holy innocence, A broken law to recompense. 3. Oh, love effulgent, love divine! What debt of gratitude is mine, That in his off’ring I have part And hold a place within his heart. 4. In word and deed he doth require My will to his, like son to sire, Be made to bend, and I, as son, Learn conduct from the Holy One. 5. This sacrament doth represent His blood and body for me spent. Partaking now is deed for word That I remember him, my Lord. Scripture: John 3:16-17 Used With Tune: MARGARET

Seal Thou my breast, and let me wear That pledge of love for ever there! 3 How blest are they who still abide Close sheltered at Thy bleeding side! Who life and strength from Thee derive, And by Thee move, and in Thee live. 4 What are our works but sin and death, Till Thou Thy quickening Spirit breathe? Thou giv'st the power Thy grace to move: O wondrous grace! O boundless love! 5 How can it be, Thou heavenly King, That Thou shouldst us to glory bring? Make slaves the partners of Thy throne, Decked with a never-fading crown? 6 First-born of many brethren Thou! To Thee, lo! all our souls we bow; To Thee our hearts and hands we give: Thine may we die, Thine may we live! Used With Tune: PENTECOST

Covered is my unrighteousness, Nor spot of guilt remains on me, While Jesus' blood, through earth and skies, Mercy, free, boundless mercy, cries. 4 With faith I plunge me in this sea, Here is my hope, my joy, my rest; Hither, when hell assails, I flee, I look into my Saviour's breast; Away, sad doubt, and anxious fear! Mercy is all that's written there. 5 Though waves and storms go o'er my head, Though strength, and health, and friends be gone, Though joys be withered all and dead, Though every comfort be withdrawn, On this my steadfast soul relies Father, Thy mercy never dies. 6 Fixed on this ground will I remain, Though my heart fail, and flesh decay; This anchor shall my soul sustain, When earth's foundations melt away; Mercy's full power I then shall prove, Loved with an everlasting love.
