O God of love what do I see

Meter: 8.8.8. D.

Scripture: 1 Peter 2:24

1

O God of love what do I see,

The immortal One has died for me;

Son of the everlasting God

Bore all my sins, there on the tree;

The immortal One has died for me,

My Lord was nailed to the cross tree.

2

Ye that pass by, behold and see

As the blood flows from His body;

Sinner, see the Creator die,

There’s no sorrow to be compared;

Come let us reap the benefit

Of His being nailed to the cross.

3

Nailed to the tree, that you and I

Might return and come to our God;

Believe the true testimony,

The blood of Jesus has bought you.

In Him we can find forgiveness,

My Lord was nailed to the cross tree.

4

Let us sit down under the cross,

Under the flowing, healing stream;

Let us count everything but loss

And surrender our hearts to Him;

Let us think of this only, that

My Lord was nailed to the cross tree.
