Jesus Rejoices Over All Who Repents
God has sent down to earth
His gospel message of salvation
through the person of Jesus His son
what a wonderful happy occasion
For God saw man had fallen
into sinfulness so very great
only Jesus could rescue him
from this hell-bound awful state
Jesus's call was for repentance
for man to turn away from sin
and turn back to God's glorious way
receiving grace forever to win
Jesus now lives in heaven
interceding for those of His elect
up there, there's so great rejoicing
when sinners are no longer in debt
What a smile on Jesus's face
when His power is on display
bringing redemption to His saved
who repent to find God's way
(Having written this when considering when would Jesus smile when here on earth, this is my evidence that he would.)
