Behold! what wondrous grace

Author: Watts Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 351 hymnals Scripture: Romans 8:14-15 Lyrics: 1 Behold! what wondrous grace The Father has bestowed On sinners of a mortal race, To call them sons of God. 2 Tis no surprising thing That we should be unknown; The Jewish world knew not their King, God's everlasting Son. 3 Nor doth it yet appear How great we must be made; But, when we see our Saviour here, We shall be like our Head. 4 A hope, so much divine, May trials well endure; May purge our souls from sense and sin, As Christ, the Lord, is pure. 5 If, in my Father's love, I share a filial part, Send down thy Spirit, like a dove, To rest upon my heart. 6 We would no longer lie, Like slaves, beneath the throne; Our faith shall Abba, Father! cry, And thou the kindred own.
