For God So Loved Us
GOTT IST DIE LIEBE 10.9.Ref.
LOVE OF GOD
For God so loved us,
He sent the Savior:
For God so loved us,
and loves me too.
Love so unending!
I'll sing His praises,
God loves His children,
loves even me.
He sent the Savior,
the blest Redeemer;
He sent the Savior
to set me free.
He bade me welcome,
O word of mercy;
He bade me welcome,
O voice divine.
Glory and honor,
O Love eternal,
To Him be given
while life shall last.

For God so loved us,
He sent the Savior:
For God so loved us,
and loves me too.

Refrain
Love so unending!
I'll sing His praises,
God loves His children,
Loves even me.

He sent the Savior,
the blest Redeemer;
He sent the Savior
to set me free.

He bade me welcome,
O word of mercy;
He bade me welcome,
O voice divine.

Glory and honor,
O Love eternal,
To Him be given
while life shall last.
