498. Sing them over again to me

1 Sing them over again to me,
wonderful words of life;
let me more of their beauty see,
wonderful words of life;
words of life and beauty,
teach me faith and duty.

Refrain:
Beautiful words, wonderful words,
wonderful words of life,
beautiful words, wonderful words,
wonderful words of life.

2 Christ, the blessed one, gives to all,
wonderful words of life;
sinner, list to the loving call,
wonderful words of life;
all so freely given,
wooing us to heaven. [Refrain]

3 Sweetly echo the gospel call,
wonderful words of life;
offer pardon and peace to all,
wonderful words of life;
Jesus, only Saviour,
sanctify forever. [Refrain]
