1 A divinal mensagem
Avisa ao pecador
Que Deus amou ao mundo
E deu-lhe um Salvador.
E quem em Jesus Cristo crer
Eterna bênção há de ter.

2 "Pecado traz a morte",
Assim Deus declarou,
E o homem sem desculpa
Perante Deus ficou.
Mas quem em Jesus Cristo crer
Eterna bênção há de ter.

3 O Pai mandou Seu Filho
Pra vida nos trazer,
Mas Ele não podia
Dar vida sem morrer.
Agora quem em Cristo crer
Eterna bênção há de ter.

4 Não veio Cristo ao mundo
A fim de o condenar,
Mas quis, por Sua morte,
Os homens resgatar.
E quem em Jesus Cristo crer
Eterna bênção há de ter.
