When I Behold Jesus Christ

LSB, 542

But God shows His love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

     -Romans 5:8

In this the love of God was made manifest among us, that God sent his only Son into the world, so that we might live through him.  In this is love, not that we have loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.

     -I John 4:9 & 10

Greater love has no one that this, that someone lay down his life for his friends.

     -John 15:13

When I behold Jesus Christ, 

True God who died for me,

I wonder much at His love

As He hung on the tree.

What kind of love is this?

What kind of love is this?

You showed Your love, Jesus, there

To me on Calvary.

What kind of love is this?

What kind of love is this?

You showed Your love, Jesus, there

To me on Calvary.
