wondrous love

that you would leave your throne

and make this world your home

forsaking majesty

embracing mundane

and all of its shame

you walked our dusty streets

healing a world in need

you looked into the eyes

of sinners like me

setting us free

what wondrous love is this

what wondrous love is this

that you would lay aside your glory for my soul

what wondrous love is this

what wondrous love is this

that you would lay down your life for my soul

enduring agony

you bore the cross for me

betrayed by those you love

you took all our blame

bearing our pain

they nailed your feet

they nailed your hands

you are the god

who understands

you know rejection

loss and grief

you loved a world

that nailed you to a tree
