2. Though He was rejected 4. His love is so tender,

By men who were blinded; To Him I’ll surrender;
His love is constraining, His name is so precious,
His heart still unchanging; I gladly call, “Jesus!”
Thus in incarnation His Person’s so charming,
Came He as salvation; My heart ever winning;
His name is called Jesus, I’ll hold back no longer,
And He came to seek us. I’ll love Him forever.

3. Though born as a sinner,

His blood has redeemed me.
He suffered on Calv’ry,
Then raised up in glory,
To regenerate me.
Now joined in one spirit
I love to enjoy Him,
For I’ve been forgiven!
