To us our God His love commends,
When by our sins undone;
That He might spare His enemies,
He would not spare His Son;

His only Son, on whom was placed
His whole delight and love,
Before He formed the earth below,
Or spread the heavens above.

Our sorrows and our guilt to bear,
Our judgment to sustain;
He came, upon the tree to die,
That we might life obtain.

His word assures He’ll quickly come,
For this His brethren pray;
The whole creation for it groans,
Come, Lord, without delay!
