When Time Was Ripe

When the time was ripe
in the fullness of time
Christ came to earth
walking as a man

Come to free us from sin
the chains of the law
grace alone redeeming us
nothing we could pay

Now to spread the good news
of the father, of the son
the love God for each of us
sufficient to save the world
