The Son of God ! the Lord of Life !
How wondrous are His ways !
O for a harp of thousand strings,
To sound abroad his praise !
How passing strange, to leave the seat
Of Heaven's eternal throne,
And hosts of glittering Seraphim,
For guilty man alone !
And did He bow His sacred head,
And die a death of shame ?
Let men and angels magnify
And bless His holy name !
O let us live in peace and love,
And cast away our pride.
And crucify our sins afresh.
As He was crucified !
He rose again ; then let us rise
From sin, and Christ adore,
And dwell in peace with all mankind,
And tempt the Lord no more :
The Son of God! the Lord of Life !
How wondrous are His ways !
O for a harp of thousand strings
To sound abroad His praise !
