What Wondrous Love

Author: John Newton Hymnal: The New Make Christ King #16 (1914) First Line: I saw One hanging on a tree Refrain First Line: What wondrous love! Thy life to give Lyrics: 1 I saw One hanging on a tree, In agony and blood’ He fixed His languid eyes on me, As near His cross I stood. Chorus: What wondrous love! Thy life to give That I might ransomed be; Had I a thousand lives to live I’d live them all for Thee. 2 Sure, never to my latest breath, Can I forget that look; It seemed to charge me with His death, Tho’ not a word He spoke. [Chorus] 3 My conscience felt and owned the guilt, And [lunged me in despair; I saw my sins His blood had spilt And helped to nail Him there. [Chorus] 4 Alas! I knew not what I did,— But now my tears are vain; Where shall my trembling soul be hid? For I the Lord have slain. [Chorus] 5 A second look He gave, that said, “I freely all forgive; This blood is for thy ransom paid; I die that thou may’st live.” [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [I saw One hanging on a tree]
