Oh Sweet the Rapture of His Love

Oh sweet the rapture of His love
How gentle are the nail scarred hands
How precious is the wounded side
That bore such pain for Love’s demands
That bore such pain for Love

   Precious Jesus, God and King
   Precious Jesus, Anthems Ring
   Praises to the Holy Dove
   Praises to the God above
   Oh sweet the rapture of His Love

Oh rugged cross, Oh symbol bare
That bore my Holy God and King
An emblem of great sacrifice
His selfless act loves message brings
His selfless act of love

   Precious Jesus, God and King
   Precious Jesus, Anthems Ring
   Praises to the Holy Dove
   Praises to the God above
   Oh sweet the rapture of His Love

An empty tomb is sitting there
Amidst the early morning sun
He is not dead He’s risen high
My Jesus is the Fathers Son
My Jesus is the one

   Precious Jesus, God and King
   Precious Jesus, Anthems Ring
   Praises to the Holy Dove
   Praises to the God above
   Oh sweet the rapture of His Love

I call to Thee amidst this joy
That is replete with blessed peace
Abundant life Thy Word unfolds
Thy sweetest gift of grace increase
Thy sweetest gift of grace

   Precious Jesus, God and King
   Precious Jesus, Anthems Ring
   Praises to the Holy Dove
   Praises to the God above
   Oh sweet the rapture of His Love
