Plunged in a gulf of dark despair

Author: Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 480 hymnals Scripture: Romans 5:7-8 Lyrics: 1 Plunged in a gulf of dark despair, We wretched sinners lay, Without one cheerful beam of hope Or spark of glimmering day. 2 With pitying eyes the Prince of Grace Behold our helpless grief; He saw, and--oh, amazing love!-- He ran to our relief. 3 Down from the shining seats above, With joyful haste he fled, Entered the grave in mortal flesh, And dwelt among the dead. 4 Oh, for this love, let rocks and hills Their lasting silence break, And all harmonious human tongues The Saviour's praises speak. 5 Angels, assist our mighty joys, Strike all your harps of gold; But when you raise your highest notes, His love can ne'er be told.
