How kind was the heart of the Sav¤iour of men,
His grace and sal¤va¤tion to ¤show,
He came from the bos¤om of God to re¤veal
The way, truth and life here be¤¤low.

Chorus:
How kind was the heart of the Sav¤iour in liv¤ing
His life as a light for ¤thee,
O, lift up your eyes and be¤hold your Re¤deem¤er,
Bear¤ing your sins on the ¤tree.

How kind was the heart of the Sav¤iour of men
To leave those fair man¤sions on ¤high,
And bear in His bod¤y the sins of the world,
In an¤guish to suf¤fer and ¤die.

How kind was the heart of the Sav¤iour of men,
In tri¤umph to rise from the ¤grave,
A Prince and a Sav¤iour ex¤alt¤ed of God,
His cho¤sen al¤might¤y to ¤save.

How lov¤ing and kind is the Sav¤iour of men
His na¤ture and life to im¤¤part,
To all who will come and ac¤knowl¤edge Him Lord,
And give Him a place in their ¤heart.
