Author: Vernon H. Nelson Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Our gracious God sent the Savior Lyrics: 1 Our gracious God sent the Savior,
who, showing perfect behavior,
conquered each test and temptation,
by his death brought us salvation.
2 So to our God we sing praises,
who all our spirits upraises,
and we rejoice in the telling
of his dear grace in us dwelling.
3 Thanks to his love's wide outpouring
and to the Spirit's imploring,
joy in our hearts is abiding,
suff'ring and pain are subsiding. Topics: Epiphany; Christian year--Epiphany; Christ's Example Scripture: Hebrews 5:7-10 Used With Tune: DER GÜTIG GOTT Text Sources: Bohemian Brethren
