1 The Lord on high his love proclaims,
And makes his goodness known;
To men deserving endless pains
He gave his only Son.

2 He gave his Son their life to be,
To save them from despair;
From death and hell to set them free,
In glory to appear.

3 All real good in Jesus dwells,
And freely is bestowed
On such as cannot help themselves,
And cry for help to God.

4 Then, mourning souls, dry up your tears;
Though wretched be your case,
His love shall banish all your fears;
He’ll save you by his grace.
