Such Love
That God should love
A sinner such as I,
Should yearn to change
My sorrow into bliss,
Nor rest till He
Had planned to bring me nigh,
How wonderful is love like this!
Such love, such wondrous love,
Such love, such wondrous love,
That God should love
A sinner such as I,
How wonderful is love like this!
That Christ should join
So freely in the scheme,
Although it meant
His death on Calvary,
Did ever human tongue
Find nobler theme
Than love divine
That ransomed me?
That for a wilful
Outcast such as I,
The Father planned,
The Saviour bled and died;
Redemption for
A worthless slave to buy,
Who long had law
And grace defied.
And now He takes me
To His heart, a son,
He asks me not
To fill a servant's place;
The "far-off country"
Wand'rings all are done,
Wide open are
His arms of grace.
