Hymn 480
Jesus Thou who lives in Heaven
Jesu t’o wà l’oke ọrun
- Jesus Thou who lives in Heaven,
Come down to be man and die
In the Bible it could be found
How He went about doing good. - He went on errand doing good
He opened the eyes of the blind,
Many are the lame by the way.
He pitied them and restored them. - Beside all these He preached to them
Things that are delightful to God,
Above all He is meek and mild
He listened to all the children. - Yet he died a sorrowful death
He was crucified on the tree,
The blessed hand who redeemed us
They crucified Him on the tree. - He knew how wicked all men are;
How painful the price of sin is,
In His mercy our Saviour said
He will redeem the sins of men. - And for this sake he met his death,
‘Was made men to fulfil the pledge
Our holy Bible testifies,
He came from heaven to forgive. - O God Thou pardoned all sinners,
Those who repenteth all their sins
May we wake up and look to Thee
That we may have bounteous grace. Amen.
