Joy to the World ‎#105

105. Assurance

1 Into the world, a light I come;
Our Savior says: I am thy guide;
Whoso on me believeth, shall
In darkness never more abide.

Chorus:
Oh! free and wondrous grace!
Oh! love with mercy rife;
"He that believeth on the Son,
Hath everlasting life."

2 Who heareth now my word, believes
On him that sent me yields the strife,
In condemnation shall not come,
But now is passed from death to life. [Chorus]

3 And whosoever liveth true;
Oh! sinner, hear the loving cry;
And whosoever me believes,
Shall never, never, never die. [Chorus]
