Christ Has Come To Save His Own ― Don
Fortner
(Tune:
Hark! The Herald Angels Sing―#93―77.77 D)
1.
Grace unequaled! Love unknown! Christ has come to save His own!
Praise the everlasting Word,
God incarnate, Christ our Lord!
God, the everlasting Son, for
us laid aside His crown,
Clothed Himself with flesh and
blood, joining manhood unto God!
Grace unequaled! Love unknown!
Christ has come to save His own!
2.
Well might wond’ring angel’s cry, “Glory be to God on high,
Peace on earth, good will to
men.” Salvation has come to men!
By assuming mortal flesh,
capable of suff’ring death,
Christ brought hope when He was
born of eternal salvation.
Grace unequaled! Love unknown!
Christ has come to save His own!
3.
Though He was by men despised and, at last, was crucified,
Christ fulfilled His Father’s
will, and in death He has prevailed;
Bearing all the wrath of God,
He redeemed us by His blood!
Yet, He lives, exalted high, to
save all for whom He died!
Grace unequaled! Love unknown!
Christ has come to save His own!
