EN 4142 Almighty God, Whose Only Son

John.3.16

Versi Version 1

1

Almighty God, whose only Son

O’er sin and death the triumph won,

And ever lives to intercede

For souls who Thy sweet mercy need;

2

In His dear Name to Thee we pray

For all who err and go astray,

For sinners, wheresoe’er they be,

Who do not serve and honor Thee.

3

There are who never yet have heard

The tidings of Thy blessed Word,

But still in heathen darkness dwell,

Without one thought of Heav’n or hell.

4

And some within Thy sacred fold

To holy things are dead and cold,

And waste the precious hours of life

In selfish ease, or toil, or strife;

5

And many a quickened soul within

There lurks the secret love of sin,

A wayward will, or anxious fears,

Or lingering taint of bygone years.

6

O give repentance true and deep

To all Thy lost and wandering sheep,

And kindle in their hearts the fire

Of holy love and pure desire.

7

That so from angel hosts above

May rise a sweeter song of love,

And we, with all the blest, adore

Thy Name, O God, for evermore.
