Lyrics

What wondrous love is this, oh my soul, oh my soul
What wondrous love is this, oh my soul
What wondrous love is this that caused the Lord of bliss
To send this precious gift* to my soul, to my soul
To send this precious gift* to my soul

When I was sinking down, sinking down, sinking down
When I was sinking down, sinking down
When I was sinking down beneath God’s righteous frown
Christ laid aside his crown for my soul, for my soul,
Christ laid aside his crown for my soul

And when from death I’m free, I’ll sing on, I’ll sing on
And when from death I’m free, I’ll sing on
And when from death I’m free, I’ll sing and joyful be
And through eternity I’ll sing on, I’ll sing on
And through eternity I’ll sing on
