I’ve a
message to tell to the people,
From
deep valley or on high steeple,
A
message that’s old yet forever new,
That
will change and reform each one of you,
For it
tells of Jesus, the One true Way,
God,
in human flesh, came our sins to pay,
Dying
on the cross a sinner’s full death,
Unmatched
love, in full height, depth, length and breadth,
Powerful
love, that still the sinner seeks,
Redeeming
love, that to each sinner speaks,
Yes! I
have a message, simple and plain,
Lose
all the world and Saviour Jesus gain,
For
though, as He hung there, nailed to the cross,
It
seemed His work was a pathetic loss,
As the
chastisement of sin spared Him not,
Your
punishment and mine is what He got,
He
never murmured, He never complained,
Even
when life from His Body was drained,
Jesus,
God in flesh, in fullest measure,
Faced,
in hell’s sojourn, sin’s fullest pressure,
Suffered,
bled and died, counting not the cost,
Love
bore it all, to save the sinful lost;
I’ve a
message to tell of saving grace,
Of One
who suffered and died in my place,
My
message to you is simple and true,
Believe
that Jesus Christ died to save you,
Believe,
from the grave He rose victorious,
Believe
that life in Him is glorious,
Will
you accept my message old, not new?
That
in you love’s message will take bright view.
Amen!
