Lyrics
Verse 1
‘Tis sweet to remember the love of my Lord Who suffered on dark Calvary, Redemption, I know, was the price of His blood, When Jesus was dying for me.
Verse 2
To think one so holy could die in my stead, What love and compassion I see; In tones full of pity “‘Tis finished,” He said,
Verse 3
I think of the sorrow and pain that He bore, That day as He hung on the tree; And blush when I see the rough crown that He wore,
Chorus
Love, love, such wonderful love, Love, love, so full and so free; No wonder the sun failed to shine from above, When Jesus was dying for me.
O wonderful, wonderful love, Compassion so full and so free;
