God Loved The World Lyrics

1. God loved the world so that he gave
His only Son the world to save.

[Chorus]
Then sing for joy, sing for joy,
Near and far, O and A,
Bless ye the Lord.
Alleluya.

2. Our Saviour He, and chiefest good,
Like to our own, took flesh and blood. [Chorus]

3. The same that sitteth thron'd on high,
A Babe is lowly crib doth lie. [Chorus]

4. See, the Almighty Lord of all
Doth on the garb of common thrall. [Chorus]

5. Choosing Him poverty below,
To make man rich for evermo. [Chorus]

6. What! God the serf, and man the knight!
Sure, this of love the very height. [Chorus]

7. The gate of Eden once was barr'd,
But now no need of Cherub-guard. [Chorus]

8. Wherefore, I pray you, merry make,
And carol for the Baby's sake. [Chorus]
