VERSE 1
Come behold the wondrous mystery in the dawning of the King.
He the theme of heaven’s praises robed in frail humanity.
In our longing, in our darkness now the light of life has come.
Look to Christ, who condescended took on flesh to ransom us

VERSE 2
Come behold the wondrous mystery He the perfect Son of Man.
In His living, in His suffering never trace nor stain of sin.
See the true and better Adam come to save the hell-bound man.
Christ the great and sure fulfillment of the law; in Him we stand.

VERSE 3
Come behold the wondrous mystery Christ the Lord upon the tree.
In the stead of ruined sinners hangs the Lamb in victory.
See the price of our redemption; see the Father’s plan unfold.
Bringing many sons to glory grace unmeasured, love untold.

VERSE 4
Come behold the wondrous mystery; slain by death the God of life.
But no grave could e’er restrain Him; praise the Lord; He is alive!
What a foretaste of deliverance; how unwavering our hope.
Christ in power resurrected as we will be when he comes.

VERSE 1
I hear the Savior say,
“Thy strength indeed is small;
Child of weakness, watch and pray,
Find in Me thine all in all.”
For nothing good have I —
Whereby Thy grace to claim,
I’ll wash my garments white —
In the blood of Calvary’s Lamb.

CHORUS
Jesus paid it all, All to Him I owe;
Sin had left a crimson stain,
He washed it white as snow.

VERSE 2
And now complete in Him
My robe His righteousness,
Close sheltered ’neath His side, I am divinely blest.
Lord, now indeed I find
Thy power and Thine alone, Can change the leper’s spots
And melt the heart of stone.

VERSE 3
When from my dying bed My ransomed soul shall rise,
“Jesus died my soul to save,” Shall rend the vaulted skies.
And when before the throne I stand in Him complete,
I’ll lay my trophies down All down at Jesus’ feet.

BRIDGE
O praise the One who paid my debt
And raised this life up from the dead

VERSE 1
Come thou fount of every blessing
Tune my heart to sing thy grace
Streams of mercy, never ceasing
Call for songs of loudest praise
Teach me some melodious sonnet
Sung by flaming tongues above
Praise the mount! I’m fixed upon it
Mount of thy redeeming love

VERSE 2
Here I’ve found my greatest treasure
Hither to thy help I’ve come
And I hope, by thy good pleasure
Safely to arrive at home
Jesus sought me when a stranger
Wandering from the fold of God
He, to rescue me from danger
Interposed his precious blood

VERSE 3
Oh, to grace how great a debtor
Daily I’m constrained to be
Let thy goodness, like a fetter
Bind my wandering heart to Thee
Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it
Prone to leave the God I love
Here’s my heart, O take and seal it
Seal it for Thy courts above

VERSE 4
O that day when freed from sinning,
I shall see Thy lovely face;
Clothed then in blood washed linen
How I’ll sing Thy sovereign grace; 
Come, my Lord, no longer tarry,
Take my ransomed soul away;
Send thine angels now to carry
Me to realms of endless day.

VERSE 1
The mystery of the cross I cannot comprehend
The agonies of Calvary
You the perfect holy One crushed Your Son
Who drank the bitter cup reserved for me

CHORUS
Your blood has washed away my sin
Jesus, thank You
The Father’s wrath completely satisfied
Jesus, thank You
Once your enemy now seated at Your table
Jesus, thank You

VERSE 2
By your loving sacrifice, I’ve been brought near
Your enemy You’ve made Your friend
Pouring out the riches of Your glorious grace
Your mercy and Your kindness know no end

BRIDGE
Lover of my soul I want to live for You

VERSE 1
Marvelous grace of our loving Lord,
Grace that exceeds our sin and our guilt!
Yonder on Calvary’s mount outpoured,
There where the blood of the Lamb was spilled.

VERSE 2
Sin and despair, like the sea waves cold,
Threaten the soul with infinite loss;
Grace that is greater, yes, grace untold,
Points to the refuge, the mighty cross.

CHORUS
Grace, grace, God’s grace,
Grace that will pardon and cleanse within;
Grace, grace, God’s grace,
Grace that is greater than all our sin!

VERSE 3
Dark is the stain that we cannot hide;
What can we do to wash it away?
Look! There is flowing a crimson tide,
Brighter than snow you may be today.

VERSE 4
Marvelous, infinite, matchless grace,
Freely bestowed on all who believe!
You that are longing to see His face,
Will you this moment His grace receive?

VERSE 1
Let us love and sing and wonder
Let us praise the Savior’s name
He has hushed the law’s loud thunder
He has quenched Mt. Sinai’s flame

VERSE 2
Let us love the Lord who bought us
Pitied us when enemies
Called us by His grace and taught us
Gave us ears and gave us eyes

CHORUS 1
He has washed us with His blood
He has washed us with His blood
He has washed us with His blood
He presents our souls to God

VERSE 3
Let us wonder grace and justice
Join and point to mercy’s store
When through grace in Christ our trust is
Justice smiles and asks no more

CHORUS 2
He who washed us with His blood
He who washed us with His blood
He who washed us with His blood
Has secured our way to God

VERSE 4
Let us praise and join the chorus,
of the saints enthroned on high
Here they trusted Him before us,
now their praises fill the sky

CHORUS 3
He has washed us with His blood
He has washed us with His blood
He has washed us with His blood
He will bring us home to God

VERSE 1
“Great is Thy faithfulness,” O God my Father,
There is no shadow of turning with Thee;
Thou changest not, Thy compassions, they fail not
As Thou hast been Thou forever wilt be.

CHORUS
“Great is Thy faithfulness!” “Great is Thy faithfulness!”
Morning by morning new mercies I see;
All I have needed Thy hand hath provided—
“Great is Thy faithfulness,” Lord, unto me!

VERSE 2
Summer and winter, and springtime and harvest,
Sun, moon and stars in their courses above,
Join with all nature in manifold witness
To Thy great faithfulness, mercy and love.

VERSE 3
Pardon for sin and a peace that endureth,
Thine own dear presence to cheer and to guide;
Strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow,
Blessings all mine, with ten thousand beside!

VERSE 1
O Love that will not let me go,
I rest my weary soul in thee
I give thee back the life I owe,
that in thine ocean depths its flow
May richer, fuller be
My life is not my own, it’s Yours
My life is not my own, it’s Yours

VERSE 2
O light that follows all my way,
I yield my flickering torch to thee
My heart restores its borrowed ray,
that in thy sunshine’s blaze its day
May brighter, fairer be
So light a fire in my heart, and I will burn for You
So light a fire in my heart, and I will burn for You

VERSE 3
O Joy that seeks me through the pain,
I cannot close my heart to thee
I trace the rainbow through the rain,
and feel the promise is not vain That morn shall tearless be
So anoint me with joy, and joyful I will be
So anoint me with joy, and joyful I will be

VERSE 4
O Cross that’s lifting up my head,
I dare not ask to fly from thee
I lay in dust life’s glory dead,
and from the ground there blossoms red
Life that shall endless be
We will sing, “Holy, Holy is the King of Kings!” (repeat)

VERSE 1
“Man of Sorrows,” what a name,
for the Son of God, who came
Ruined sinners to reclaim!
Hallelujah! What a Savior 

VERSE 2
Bearing shame and scoffing rude,
in my place condemned He stood
Sealed my pardon with His Blood.
Hallelujah! What a Savior 

VERSE 3
Guilty, vile, and helpless me,
Spotless Lamb of God was He.
Full atonement! Can it be?
Hallelujah! What a Savior 

VERSE 4
Lifted up was He to die;
“It is finished,” was His cry;
Now in Heaven exalted high!
Hallelujah! What a Savior 

VERSE 5
When He comes, our glorious King,
all His ransomed home to bring
Then anew this song we’ll sing:
Hallelujah! What a Savior 

VERSE 1
Rock of Ages, cleft for me,
Let me hide myself in Thee
Let the water and the blood,
From Thy wounded side which flowed
Be of sin the double cure,
Save from wrath and make me pure

VERSE 2
Not the labor of my hands,
can fulfill Thy law’s demands
Should my passion never fade,
should my efforts all be weighed
These for sin could not atone;
Thou must save, and Thou alone

VERSE 3
Nothing in my hand I bring,
simply to the cross I cling
Naked, come to Thee for dress;
Helpless look to Thee for grace
Foul, I to the fountain fly;
Wash me, Savior, or I die

VERSE 4
While I draw this fleeting breath,
when mine eyes shall close in death
When I rise to worlds unknown,
and behold thee on thy throne,
Rock of Ages, cleft for me,
Let me hide myself in Thee.
