RCCG Hymn 272
God Loved the World of Sinners Lost
"God so loved the world, ..." - John 3:16
God loved the world of sinners lost And ruined by the fall Salvation full, at highest cost, He offers free to all.
Chorus
Oh, 'twas love, 'twas wondrous love! The love of God to me; It brought my Saviour from above, To die on Calvary.
Eternal praises, Lord, to Thee, Thou blessed Son of God; For Thy deep love in cleansing me, In Thy most precious blood.
Love brings the glorious fulness in And to His saints makes known The blessed rest from inbred sin Through faith in Christ alone.
Believing souls, rejoicing go; There shall to you be given A glorious foretaste, here below, Of endless life in heaven.
Of victory now o'er Satan's power Let all the ransomed sing, And triumph in the dying hour Through Christ the Lord, our King.
