Representative Text

1 Is it nothing to you that long ages ago
The Saviour from heaven came down,
Deprived of the glory he had upon high,
Bereft of his beautiful crown.

Refrain:
Is it nothing, nothing,
Nothing to you,
Is it nothing, O sinner, to you?
Bethink you today,
Ere your life ebbs away;
Is it nothing, just nothing to you?

2 Is it nothing to you that he wandered on earth,
Despised and rejected of men?
The foxes had holes and the birds had their nests,
But he had no resting place then. [Refrain]

3 Is it nothing to you that he died on the cross,
And bore such a terrible load,
While out of his bosom the stream of his love,
A current of crimson fast flowed. [Refrain]

4 Is it nothing to you that he entered the grave,
And met the last enemy there,
And conquered the legions of hell by his power,
The crown of the victor to wear. [Refrain]

5 Is it nothing to you that he’s coming again,
With angels a glorious train,
To sit on his throne as the judge of the world,
And then to eternity reign. [Refrain]
