GOD gave his Son for me,
O wondrous love!
From sin to set me free,
O wondrous love!
A guilty rebel I,
Bound and condemned to die,
He did not pass me by;
O wondrous love!

2 There, there at God?s right hand,
O wondrous love!
I see my Saviour stand,
O wondrous love!
He makes my nature pure,
In him I am secure,
Whatever I endure;
O wondrous love!

3 He?ll give me needful grace,
O wondrous love!
Soon I shall see his face,
O wondrous love!
Join those who?ve gone before,
Sorrow and pain all o?er,
Heaven, Heaven, for evermore!
O wondrous love!

Charles William
