Blest are you, Lord Jesus who came to us a little child

For God so loved the world
ALL: That all might have eternal life.

and yet pointed to a harvest that was yet to come
For God so loved the world

For God so loved the world

Blest are you, Lord Jesus, who rose 
from the ignominy of a sinner’s death
to the triumph of a Saviour’s resurrection

God so loved the world that he gave his only Son
for the sake of me
and you
and other sinners too
God so loved the world
Blest are you Lord Jesus, our Saviour and Redeemer.
ALL: Thanks be to the God of Love. Amen
