1 I wonder, often wonder,
Just how it came to be
That there is up in heaven,
A mansion fair for me;
And then do I remember
That the dear Son of God
Once shed for rebel sinners
His own atoning blood.

Refrain:
Forever at his feet I'll sit,
And wonder at the grace
So large and free it found for me
In heav'n a dwelling-place.

2 I wonder, often wonder,
Just why his tender love
Brought down the dear Redeemer
From his bright home above;
And then do I remember
That on the shameful tree
The Saviour made atonement
For tender love of me. [Refrain]

3 I wonder, often wonder,
That he can bear with me,
Enduring all my follies,
And yet so gracious be;
And then do I remember
His grace is rich and free,
And that he is so patient
Because he so loves me. [Refrain]
