The Wonders of Redeeming Love
Create PowerPoint slides from this hymn →A meditation on the mystery of Christ's atoning sacrifice, tracing his descent from glory to suffer for sinful humanity and his ongoing intercession before the Father. The hymn reflects classic evangelical theology on redemption and is likely of 18th or 19th century origin.
Verse 1
The wonders of redeeming love
Our highest thoughts exceed;
The Son of God comes from above
For sinful man to bleed.
Verse 2
He gives Himself, His life, His all,
A sinless sacrifice.
For man He drains the cup of gall,
For man the victim dies.
Verse 3
And now before His Father's face
His precious blood He pleads;
For those who seek the throne of grace
His lovee still intercedes.
Verse 4
He knows the frailties of our frame,
For He has borne our grief;
Our great High Priest once felt the same,
And He can send relief.
Verse 5
His love will not be satisfied,
Till He in glory sees
The faithful ones for whom He died
From sin forever free.
