Behold the Wondrous Love

lyricist: Fanny Crosby, 19th Century
Composer: Ira Sankey

Behold

be­hold the won­drous love

That ev­er flows from God above

Through Christ His on­ly Son

who gave

His pre­cious blood our souls to save.

All praise and glo­ry be un­to Je­sus

For He hath pur­chased a full sal­va­tion;

Behold how won­drous the pro­cla­ma­tion

Whosoever will may come!

Behold a fount­ain in His side

To all the world is op­ened wide;

Where all may come

by sin op­pressed

And find in Him sweet peace and rest.

Behold Him now ex­alt­ed high

Above the bright and star­ry sky;

Yet through His word He call­eth still

Come un­to Me

who­ev­er will.

Behold in Him the Liv­ing way

That on­ward leads to end­less day;

Where

saved by grace

the ran­somed throng

Lift up the ev­er­last­ing song.
