He who loves us, now victorious,
Though he once so meekly died,
Shall from age to age more glorious
O’er the universe preside;
|: Hallelujah, :|
He for us was crucified.
He who loves us, when temptations,
Might oppress our hearts with fear,
Our believing supplications,
In his mercy deigns to hear;
|: Hallelujah, :|
We are safe, for he is near.
He who loves us, soon descending
To the earth shall come again;
Then all sin and sorrow ending
With his church in bliss shall reign;
|: Hallelujah, :|
Saints and angels shout Amen.
