Oh, It Is Wonderful!

I stand all amazed at the love Jesus offers me,

Confused at the grace that so fully He proffers me;

I tremble to know that for me He was crucified,

That for me, a sinner, He suffered, He bled, and died.

O it is wonderful, That He should care for me.

Enough to die for me!

O it is wonderful, Wonderful to me!

I marvel that He would descend from His throne divine,

To rescue a soul so rebellious and proud as mine;

That He should extend His great love unto such as I,

Sufficient to own, to redeem, and to justify.

O it is wonderful, That He should care for me.

Enough to die for me!

O it is wonderful, Wonderful to me!

I think of His hands pierced and bleeding to pay the debt!

Such mercy, such love and devotion can I forget?

No, no! I will praise and adore at the mercy-seat,

Until at the glorified throne I kneel at His feet.

O it is wonderful, That He should care for me.

Enough to die for me!

O it is wonderful, Wonderful to me!
