Wonder of wonders, Jesus loves me;
A wretch―lost―ruined―sunk in misery,
He sought me, found me, raised me, set me free.
My soul, the order of the words approve:
Christ first, me last, nothing between but LOVE.
Lord, keep me always down, Thyself above.
Trusting to Thee, not struggling restlessly,
So shall I gain the victory
"I ―yet not I"―but Christ―"Who loved me.'
