O listen to our wondrous story-

1 O listen to our wondrous story
Counted once among the lost
Yet One came down from Heaven s glory
Saving us at awful cost

Who saved us from eternal loss
Who but God s Son upon the cross
What did He do
He died for you
Where is He now
In Heaven interceding

2 No angel could His place have taken
Highest of the high though he
The loved One on the cross forsaken
Was One of the Godhead three

3 And yet this wondrous tale proceedeth
Stirring heart and tongue aflame
As our high priest in Heav n He pleadeth
And Christ Jesus is His name

4 Will you surrender to this Savior
To His scepter humbly bow
You too shall come to know His favor
He will save you save you now
