OH, WHAT LOVE
Author : William M. Runyan, 1934
Tune: Wendell P. Loveless
1. Wonderful it is that Jesus cares for me,
Coming from His home on high,
Into pain and sorrow, poverty and woe,
On Calvary’s cruel cross for me to die.
Refrain: Oh, what love, that He should die for me!
Saving grace thus to supply for me;
Oh, what love! Oh, what love!
Evermore I’ll sing it–Oh, what love!
2. Not by works of righteousness which I had done.
But through grace He set me free;
I could not by merit ope redemption’s door,
Salvation was His own free gift to me. REFRAIN
3. Will He then not keep me all my journey thro’?
Yea, unto life’s latest hour.
Never would I doubt Him, for His promise sure
Is both for saving and for keeping pow’r. REFRAIN
