1 ‘Twas not to condemn us the dear Savior came,
But seeking to save us, all praise to His name;
Enduring the cross and despising the shame,
O wonderful story of love.

Chorus:
O wonderful story of love,
The sweetest that ever was told;
I’ll sing it in glory,
That wonderful story,
The story that never grows old.

2 Rejected, forsaken, betrayed by His own,
The winepress of sorrow He trod all alone
That He with His life-blood for sin might atone,
O wonderful story of love. [Chorus]

3 He died, He arose, and He liveth again,
And now intercedes for the children of men;
A King everlasting, with Him we shall reign,
O wonderful story of love. [Chorus]
