God so Loved the World
For God so loved the world
That He gave His only begotten Son,
That whomsoever believth on Him
Should not perish, should not perish,
But they shall have, they shall have
Everlating life.
God could have chosen
To never love again,
Fallen man could go his way
And die in his sin.
But God in His compassion said,
"I'll pay redemption's price",
So He took on the form of man
And became the perfect sacrifice.
Riches couldn't have paid the debt
That God could have sold,
All the walls of jasper,
All the streets of purest gold.
But He knew the price of one lost soul
Was more than wealth could buy;
And if redemption were ever bought,
Only love would satisfy.
That He gave His only begotten Son,
That whomsoever believth on Him
Should not perish, should not perish,
But they shall have, they shall have
Everlating life.
God could have chosen
To never love again,
Fallen man could go his way
And die in his sin.
But God in His compassion said,
"I'll pay redemption's price",
So He took on the form of man
And became the perfect sacrifice.
Riches couldn't have paid the debt
That God could have sold,
All the walls of jasper,
All the streets of purest gold.
But He knew the price of one lost soul
Was more than wealth could buy;
And if redemption were ever bought,
Only love would satisfy.
