Hymn 423 — O Lord, what love for sinners Thou hast shown,
O Lord, what love for sinners Thou hast shown,
To give Thy life for those by sin undone!
But is that blood which doth for sins atone,
For me?
Was it for guilty sinners such as I
That Thou, O Lord, didst suffer here and die?
And is that grace which Thou dost now supply
For me?
Is is for me, who early went astray,
Who turned from God to tread a self-willed way,
Is it for me that mercy flows today?
For me?
If it's the hopeless case Thou lov'st to meet,
If it's a sinner Thou dost run to greet,
Then `tis for me to worship at Thy feet --
For me.
Yes, `twas for me, Lord Jesus, Thou didst come;
To me Thou givest pardon, peace, and home;
And, Saviour, in Thy loving heart there's room
For me.
