Jacobi Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13979 Meter: 7.8.7.8.8.8 First Line: Christ th’eternal Lamb of God Lyrics: 1 Christ th’eternal Lamb of God, Died for man, His rebel creature, Paid the ransom with His blood, To restore fall’n human nature: Those that mourn their deep corruption Share their Savior’s blest adoption. 2 This was loving like a God, Who in wondrous condescension Sent His only Son abroad, To reveal His blest intention: That the children of perdition Should be heirs of God’s fruition. 3 Now that we are reconciled By the Son’s humiliation; Will not that triumphant Child Save us by His exaltation? We, for whom He bore such labor, Are the darlings of His favor. 4 Now we live by faith in Christ, Eying still His bright example, Who for us was sacrificed, And declares our hearts His temple. Thus we sinners boast with pleasure Our possession of this treasure. 5 Father, to Thy mercy seat Be our best of thanks directed; Lord, the rage of sin defeat, Still assaulting Thine elected: And for ever, by Thy Spirit, Fit us to proclaim Christ’s merit Languages: English Tune Title: LIEBSTER JESU
