10469. How Shall I My Savior Set Forth?

1 How shall I my Savior set forth?
How shall I His beauties declare?
Or how shall I speak of His worth,
Or what His chief dignities are?

Refrain:
O wonderful love! O wonderful love!
O wonderful, wonderful love,
My Savior showed to me.

2 Tho’ once He was nailed to the cross,
Vile rebels like me to set free,
His glory sustainèd no loss,
Eternal His kingdom shall be. [Refrain]

3 O sinners! believe and adore
This Savior, so rich to redeem;
No creature can ever explore
The treasure of goodness in Him. [Refrain]

4 Come, all ye who see yourselves lost,
And feel yourselves burdened with sin,
Draw near while with terror you’re tossèd,
Obey, and your peace shall begin. [Refrain]
