540. O Jesus So Sweet, O Jesus So Mild

1 O Jesus so sweet, O Jesus so mild,
for sinners you became a child.
You came from heaven to fulfill
your Father's just and holy will.
O Jesus so sweet, O Jesus so mild.

2 O Jesus so sweet, O Jesus so mild,
with God we now are reconciled.
You have for all the ransom paid,
your Father’s righteous anger stayed.
O Jesus so sweet, O Jesus so mild.

3 O Jesus so sweet, O Jesus so mild,
joy fills the world which sin defiled.
Whate'er we have belongs to you;
O keep us faithful, strong, and true.
O Jesus so sweet, O Jesus so mild.
