|  | 1. | Blessed be God, our God, | 
|  |  | Who gave for us His well-beloved Son, | 
|  |  | The gift of gifts, all other gifts in one; | 
|  |  | Blessed be God, our God! | 
|  | 2. | What will He not bestow! | 
|  |  | Who freely gave this mighty gift unbought, | 
|  |  | Unmerited, unheeded, and unsought, | 
|  |  | What will He not bestow? | 
|  | 3. | He sparŠd not His Son! | 
|  |  | 'Tis this that silences each rising fear, | 
|  |  | 'Tis this that bids the hard thought disappear; | 
|  |  | He sparŠd not His Son! | 
|  | 4. | Who shall condemn us now? | 
|  |  | Since Christ has died, and ris'n, and gone | 
|  |  | above, | 
|  |  | For us to plead at the right hand of Love; | 
|  |  | Who shall condemn us now? | 
|  | 5. | 'Tis God that justifies! | 
|  |  | Who shall recall His pardon or His grace? | 
|  |  | Or who the broken chain of guilt replace? | 
|  |  | 'Tis God that justifies! | 
|  | 6. | The victory is ours! | 
|  |  | For us in might came forth the mighty One; | 
|  |  | For us He fought the fight, the triumph won: | 
|  |  | The victory is ours! |
