Johnson Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 13 hymnals First Line: I know not why God’s wondrous grace Refrain First Line: It reaches me, it reaches me Lyrics: 1 I know not why God’s wondrous grace, To all the world He offers free; Nor why His love shall never cease, I only know it reaches me. Refrain: It reaches me, it reaches me, God’s grace so wondrous reaches me; I know not why it is so free, I only know it reaches me. 2 I know not why such saving faith As this could ever, ever be, Bestowed on one of little worth, I only know it reaches me.
