How matchless is God's wondrous love!
He gave His Son from heaven above,
That none should perish who believe,
But everlasting life receive.
It was for me, it was for me,
The Savior died on Calvary;
Salvation free for me to win,
God's "Whosoever" takes me in.
Herein is love, 'tis love indeed;
A love that meets our deepest need,
A love that passes human thought,
He loves us when we loved Him not.
To sinners lost, our God commends
His perfect love, which never ends;
The death of Christ that love has shown;
Was love so wondrous ever known?
His love dismisses all our fear,
And to Himself He brings us near;
The Father's house we soon shall see,
And dwell in love eternally.
"The blood of Jesus Christ His (God's) Son cleanseth us from all sin."
