We sing the praise of Him who died

lyricist: Thomas Kelly
Composer: Ludwig van Beethoven

We sing the praise of Him who died

Of Him who died upon the Cross;

The sinner’s hope let men deride

For this we count the world but loss.

Inscribed upon the Cross we see

In shining letters

God is love!

He bears our sins upon the tree

He brings us mercy from above.

The Cross: it takes our guilt away;

It holds the fainting spirit up;

It cheers with hope the gloomy day

And sweetens every bitter cup.

The balm of life

the cure of woe

The measure and the pledge of love

The sinner’s refuge here below

The angels’ theme in heav’n above.
