Jesus came to earth
by a lowly birth,
Gave Himself as an offering
of matchless worth;
To His own He came
in His Father’s Name,
But they scorned
to receive Him their King.
But as many as received Him
to them He gave the power
The power to become
the sons of God;
But as many as received Him
to them He gave the power
To become the sons of God.
Grace and pardon free,
all for you and me,
Every one who receives Him
a son may be;
For His blood He spilt
to remove our guilt,
When He offered Himself
once for all.
But as many as received Him
to them He gave the power
The power to become
the sons of God;
But as many as received Him
to them He gave the power
To become the sons of God.
Not by works we come
as the Father’s son,
To receive as a welcome
the words “well done”;
Lest we fain would boast
as a mighty host,
Knowing not ’tis
the free gift of God.
But as many as received Him
to them He gave the power
The power to become
the sons of God;
But as many as received Him
to them He gave the power
To become the sons of God.
