See LYRICS

What wondrous love is this? oh, my soul! oh, my soul!
What wondrous love is this? oh, my soul!
What wondrous love is this
That caused the Lord of bliss
To bear the dreadful curse for my soul, for my soul,
To bear the dreadful curse for my soul.

When I was sinking down, sinking down, sinking down,
When I was sinking down, sinking down,
When I was sinking down
Beneath God's righteous frown
Christ laid aside His crown for my soul, for my soul,
Christ laid aside his crown, for my soul.

Ye friends of Zion's King, join the praise, join the praise,
Ye friends of Zion's King, join the praise;
Ye friends of Zion's King,
With heart and voices sing,
And strike each tuneful string in his praise, in his praise,
And stirke each tunefuls tring in his praise.
