- 1How good is the God we adore,
- Our faithful unchangeable Friend;
- Whose love is as great as His pow’r,
- And knows neither measure nor end.
- 'Tis Jesus the First and the Last,
- Whose Spirit shall guide us safe home;
- We'll praise Him for all that is past,
- And trust Him for all that's to come.
- 2Descending from glory on High
- With men He delighted to dwell,
- Contented our Surety to die,
- Nor e’er did the vilest repel,
- Enduring the sorrow and shame,
- He suffered for sins on the cross,
- Oh, who would not boast of such love,
- And count the world’s glory but loss?
