Representative Text

1 I am so glad my Redeemer came
Down from his kingdom above,
A blessed salvation for all to proclaim,
And show us his pardoning love.

Chorus:
Pardoning love is free, is free;
Pardoning love is wide,
Pardoning love reaches sinners like me,
And reaches the world beside.

2 I am so glad that his grace is free,
Glad there is nothing to pay;
I’m glad that salvation is offered to me,
And I have full pardon today. [Chorus]

3 I am so glad Jesus waits to bring
Hope to the weary and sad,
That all who will own him as Savior and King
In pardoning love shall be glad. [Chorus]
