The Lord on high his love proclaims,

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

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.

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

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.
