God So Loved the World

On this Memorial Day Weekend, it seems appropriate to call attention to the Cross of Christ. Those who have given themselves in the service of their country have followed the example of the Lord Jesus Christ who gave Himself on the Cross so that we might be saved. (More about Memorial Day tomorrow and Monday).






GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD
Words and Musi: Sir John Stainer
From the Oratorio, “The Crucifixion: A Meditation on the Sacred Passion of the Holy Redeemer”
1887



God so loved the world,
God so loved the world,
that He gave His only begotten Son,
that whoso believeth, believeth in Him
should not perish, should not perish
but have everlasting life.
For God sent not His Son into the world
to condemn the world,
God sent not His Son into the world
to condemn the world;
But that the world through Him might be saved.
God so loved the world,
God so loved the world,
that He gave His only begotten Son,
that whoso believeth believeth in Him
should not perish, should not perish
but have everlasting life, everlasting life,
everlasting, everlasting life.
God so loved the world,
God so loved the world,
God so loved the world.
