Hymn 146: Jesus my Saviour to Bethlehem came,

Verse 1

Jesus my Saviour to Bethle-

hem came,

Born in a manger to sorrow and[shame:

Oh, it was wonderful-blest be His[name!

Seeking for me , for me!

Seeking for me!…for me!…

Oh, it was wonderful-blest be His name?

Seeking for me, for me!

 

Verse 2

Jesus my Saviour, on Calvary’s tree.

Paid the great debt, and my soul

He set free:

Oh, it was wonderful-how could it[be?-

Dying for me, for me!

Dying for me!… for me!…

Oh, it was wonderful-how could it be?

 

Verse 3

Jesus my Saviour, the same as of 

old,

While I was wand’ring afar from[the fold,

Gently and long did He plead with[my soul,

Calling for me, for me!

Calling for me!… for me!…

Gently and long did He plead with my soul

Calling for me, for me!

 

Verse 4

Jesus my Saviour shall come from

on high-

Sweet is the promise as weary years[fly:

Oh, I shall see Him descending the[sky

Coming for me, for me!

Coming for me!.. for me…

Oh, I shall see Him descending the sky

Coming for me, for me!
