Died He for me? who caused His pain? For me? who Him to death pursued? Amazing love! How can it be That Thou, my God, should die for me? Amazing love! how can it be That Thou, my God, should die for me! 2 'Tis mystery all; The Immortal dies! Who can explore His strange design? In vain the firstborn seraph tries To sound the depths of love divine. 'Tis mercy all! Let earth adore; Let angel minds inquire no more. 'Tis mercy all! Let earth adore; Let angel minds inquire no more. 3 He left His Father's throne above (So free, so infinite His grace!) Emptied Himself of all but love, And bled for Adam's helpless race. 'Tis mercy all, immense and free, For O my God, it found out me! 'Tis mercy all, immense and free, For O my God, it found out me! 4 Long my imprisoned spirit lay, Fast bound in sin and nature's night; Thine eye diffused a quick'ning ray; I woke, the dungeon flamed with light; My chains fell off, my heart was free, I rose, went forth, and followed thee. My chains fell off, my heart was free, I rose, went forth, and followed thee. 5 No condemnation now I dread; Jesus, and all in Him, is mine; Alive in Him, my living Head, And clothed in righteousness divine, Bold I approach the eternal throne, And claim the crown, through Christ my own. Bold I approach the eternal throne, And claim the crown, through Christ my own. Used With Tune: SAGINA

Jesus, when He left the sky

Appears in 114 hymnals Topics: Redemption Lyrics: 1 Jesus, when He left the sky, And for sinners came to die, In His mercy passed not by Little ones like me. 2 Mothers then the Saviour sought In the places where He taught, And to Him their children brought-- Little ones like me. 3 Did the Saviour say them nay? No, He kindly bade them stay; Suffered none to turn away Little ones like me. 4 'Twas for them His life He gave, To redeem them from the grave; Jesus able is to save Little ones like me. 5 Children, then, should love Him too, Strive His holy will to do. Pray too Him, and praise Him too-- Little ones like me. Amen. Used With Tune: S. RAPHAEL
