Wondrous Love

WHEN in the wilderness of sin The Saviour found me dying; With hope all gone, no peace within, My soul to him was crying, He came and spake sweet peace to me, And said, “I've borne it all for thee Upon the cross of Calvary.” O wondrous love!
’Twas nothing good that I had done, To merit such a Saviour, That caused the Son of man to come, And grant me peace and favor. Then do you ask what can it be That caused him thus to die for me, And set my shackled spirit free?— ’Twas wondrous love!
O wondrous love, O grace divine, Come fill me to o’erflowing; Let thy sweet Spirit in me shine, Establish all my going, That I may tell to sinners round What a dear Saviour I have found, And shout to earth’s remotest bound, ’Tis wondrous love!
—Henry De Fluiter.
