    The Gospel shows the Father’s grace,
    Who sent his Son to save our race,
    Proclaims how Jesus lived and died
    Proclaims how Jesus lived and died
    That sinners might be justified.
    That sinners might be justified.

    It sets the Lamb before our eyes,
    Who made th’atoning sacrifice,
    And calls the souls with guilt oppressed (rpt)
    To come and find eternal rest. (rpt)

    It brings the Savior’s righteousness
    Our souls to robe in royal dress;
    From all our guilt it brings release (rpt)
    And gives the troubled conscience peace. (rpt)

    It is the power of God to save
    From sin and Satan and the grave;
    It works the faith, which firmly clings (rpt)
    To all the treasures which it brings. (rpt)

    It bears to all the tidings glad
    And bids their hearts no more be sad;
    The heavy laden souls it cheers (rpt)
    And banishes their guilty fears. (rpt)

    May we in faith its tidings learn
    Nor thanklessly its blessings spurn;
    May we in faith its truth confess (rpt)
    And praise the Lord our Righteousness! (rpt)
