OH! CRÊ NESSE AMOR!

Representative Text

1 Oh! Não tens ouvido do amor sem igual,
Do amor que teu Deus tem por ti,
O amor que O levou a Seu Filho entregar
Pra os salvos levar para Si?

Refrain:
Oh, crê! Oh, crê!
A graça de Deus te chama dos céus:
Oh, crê nesse amor sem igual!

2 Não foram os grandes que Cristo chamou,
Nem justos veio Ele salvar,
Mas pobres e fracos, culpados e maus,
Mandou pelos servos chamar.

3 O homem, porém, não podia chegar
À santa presença de Deus;
Porque seus pecados, qual grande montão,
Vedavam-lhe a entrada nos céus.

4 Mas pelo Seu sangue Jesus expiou
A culpa dos crentes, na cruz;
Tirando o pecado, caminho mostrou,
O qual para o céu nos conduz.

5 E tu, pecador, não desejas também
O amor do teu Deus conhecer?
Por fé no Senhor, como teu Salvador,
Irás alcançar tal prazer.
