Hymn in C

Lyrics:

God of love,
You came to earth
Born in a manger,
the incarnate Word
Full of grace, and full of truth
You healed the leper,
you made all things new

Religion despised your
word of love
Condemned you to die
in your innocence
A crown of thorns
and mockery
Were yours, my savior,
my precious king

Stained with blood,
and bruised with pain
The lamb of God on
a cross of shame
Never before and
never again
Was love so great,
was death so grim

There on the hill you
died for me
You took my sin,
gave me liberty
I'll never boast,
but in your cross
And all my gains,
I now count as loss

When sins, they
rob my heart of joy
And when condemnation
seems to steal even more
This I recall,
You rose again
And I rose with you.
Hallelujah, Amen

If I live in want or
die in shame
To live is you and
to die is gain
I in you and you in me
My God, my brother,
my identity

Were I tempted with
the best of earth
All it's pleasures and
all it's gold
And if fame in
all it's kingdoms
Was in my hands to hold

I'd scorn it all for
you've given me
The treasure of your son
And now I'm richer
than the richest
For you've given me
your love


Thanks for sharing it, Unto Him. It comes at a good time for me.
