Representative Text

1 O Love divine, amazing Love!
That brought to earth, from Heav'n above,
The Son of God, for us to die,
That we might dwell with Him on high.

Chorus:
He died for you, He died for me,
And shed His blood to make us free;
Upon the cross of Calvary,
The Saviour died for you and me.

2 For us the crown of thorns He bore;
For us the robe of scorn He wore;
He conquer'd death, and rent the grave,
And lives again our souls to save. [Chorus]

3 O wand'rer, come, on Him believe,
His offer'd grace by faith receive;
Awake, arise, and hear Him call,
The feast is spread, there's room for all. [Chorus]
