I have heard a most wonderful story
Of Jesus, the Savior and King;
How He came from
the bright realms of glory
Glad news of salvation to bring.
O wonderful, wonderful Savior,
Thy praises with joy we will sing:
For coming on earth to redeem us
We crown Thee forever our King!
With the poor
and the lowly He mingled—
Yes, even the vilest of men,
Showing mercy
and love as they lingered,
To hear His blest words unto them.
O wonderful, wonderful Savior,
Thy praises with joy we will sing:
For coming on earth to redeem us
We crown Thee forever our King!
A poor woman was
brought to Him helpless,
To be stoned for her sins in the past;
He replied to them,
“He that is sinless,
By him let the first stone be cast.”
O wonderful, wonderful Savior,
Thy praises with joy we will sing:
For coming on earth to redeem us
We crown Thee forever our King!
See Him weep at a grave in the hour
When tears of anguish are shed;
See Him bursting
the tomb by His power,
Saying, “Lazarus,
come forth from the dead!”
O wonderful, wonderful Savior,
Thy praises with joy we will sing:
For coming on earth to redeem us
We crown Thee forever our King!
Yes, He came to give
life to the dying,
To heal all the broken in heart;
And He promised a home
where’s no sighing,
And loved ones
shall ne’er again part.
O wonderful, wonderful Savior,
Thy praises with joy we will sing:
For coming on earth to redeem us
We crown Thee forever our King!
