11586. Wondrous Love

1 O, condescension wonderful!
O boundless love, surpassing thought!
That Christ, the mighty Counselor,
From Heav’n to earth salvation brought!

Refrain:
O love divine! O, matchless grace!
O, mercy flowing full and free!
With wondrous love and winning voice,
We hear Him whisper, Come to Me.

2 O, joy to know that He is mine!
This wondrous Friend beyond compare!
O, joy above all human joy,
He will a place for me prepare! [Refrain]

3 O, peace that passeth human thought!
The peace of God so freely given!
The world cannot this peace destroy,
This peace that fills the soul with Heav’n! [Refrain]
