193. Wondrous Love

1 ‘Twas wondrous love, ‘twas love divine,
That wash’d away those sins of mine;
That bro’t my soul from deepest night,
To walk in God’s own blessed light.

Refrain:
‘Twas wondrous love, ‘twas love divine,
That wash’d away those sins of mine;
And I am happy all the day,
Because my sins are washed way.

2 ‘Twas wondrous love, ‘twas love divine,
And I accept the gracious sign;
The Spirit’s witness with the blood,
Assures me I am born of God. [Refrain]

3 ‘Twas wondrous love, ‘twas love divine,
That drew this wand’ring heart of mine
To Thee, dear Lord, that I may be,
A branch that beareth fruit for Thee. [Refrain]

4 ‘Twas wondrous love, ‘twas love divine,
‘Twas God the Father’s grand design;
And heaven is filled with joy to know,
A soul’s redeemed from endless woe. [Refrain]
