337. I will sing the wondrous story

1 I will sing the wondrous story
Of the Christ who died for me,
How he left his home in Glory,
For the cross on Calvary.

Refrain:
Yes, I’ll sing the wondrous story
Of the Christ who died for me;
Sing it with the saints in Glory,
Gathered by the crystal sea.

2 I was lost, but Jesus found me,
Found the sheep that went astray,
Threw his loving arms around me,
Drew me back into his way.

3 I was bruised, but Jesus healed me,
Faint was I from many a fall;
Sight was gone and fears possessed me,
But he freed me from them all.

4 Days of darkness still come o’er me,
Sorrow’s path I often tread,
But the Saviour still is with me,
By his hand I’m safely led.
