Christ Jesus Died for Sinners 485

Tune: Arranged by Wilson Marion Cooper
Meter: Particular Meter: 11,8,9,7
There's a wonderful theme in the gospel tongue,
As e'er was heard, as e'er was sung,
And thro' all the world the message rung,
“Christ Jesus died for sinners.”

Chorus:

Tell the message o'er again,
Jesus died for sinful men;
Sound the word and make it plain,
“Christ Jesus died for sinners.”

'Tis a wonderful theme, and I oft have read
How Jesus bowed His weary head;
“'Tis finished,” to the world He said,
“Christ Jesus died for sinners.”

(Chorus)

'Tis a wonderful theme, that the Lord should give
His life that I might life receive;
And now He bids me look and live,
“Christ Jesus died for sinners.”

(Chorus)
