553. Love Found a Way

1 Wonderful love that rescued me,
Sunk deep in sin,
Guilty and vile as I could be -
No hope within;
When ev'ry ray of light had fled,
O glorious day!
Raising my soul from out the dead,
love found a way.

Chorus:
Love found a way to redeem my soul,
Love found a way that could make me whole;
Love sent my Lord to the cross of shame,
Love found a way, O praise His holy name!

2 Love bro't my Savior here to die
On Calvary,
For such a sinful wretch as I -
How can it be?
Love bridged the gulf ’twixt me and heav’n,
Taught me to pray;
I am redeemed, set free, forgiv’n -
Love found a way. [Chorus]

3 Love opened wide the gates of light
To heav’n’s domain,
Where in eternal pow'r and might
Jesus shall reign;
Love lifted me from depths of woe
To endless day;
There was no help in earth below -
Love found a way. [Chorus]
