XXXIII.

[The Father, full of love unknown]

God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son. John iii. 16.

Christ also loved the church, and gave Himself for it. Ephesians v. 25.

The Father, full of love unknown,
Gave to the world His only Son;
Full of the same mysterious love,
The Son forsook His throne above,
And show'd His willingness to save,
When for the church Himself He gave.
Whom the Paternal Grace bestow'd,
He gave Himself both Man and God,
Assumed our flesh, and stoop'd to die,
That all might own the Lord most high,
And praise the Giver and the Given,
The only God come down from heaven.
God over all we bless Thy name,
Thy glorious majesty proclaim,
Jehovah God in Jesus see,
Whose sacred blood distain'd the tree,
That every ransom'd soul may find
Thy death the life of all mankind.
