|
| 1 | Behold, what wondrous love and grace! | 1 John 3:1; 2 Corinthians 8:9; John 3:16 |
| When we were wretched and undone, |
| To save a ruined, helpless race, |
| The Father gave His only Son! |
| Of twice ten thousand gifts divine, |
| No gift like this could ever shine. |
|
| 2 | Oh gift of love unspeakable! | 2 Corinthians 9:15; 1 Peter 1:3; Romans 6:17; 1 Corinthians 15:4,9 |
| Oh gift of mercy all divine! |
| We once were slaves of death and hell, |
| But in Christ's image we shall shine: |
| For every gift a song we raise, |
| But this demands eternal praise. |
|
| 3 | Praise shall employ these tongues of ours, |
| Till we with all the saints above, |
| Extol His name with nobler powers, |
| And see the ocean of His love: |
| Then, while we look, and wondering gaze, |
| We'll fill the heavens with endless praise. |
