The Wonder 292b
Tune: Eld. Edmund Dumas, 1869
Alto: Arranged by Karen Willard, 2006
Lyrics: Rev. Hollyday, 1829
Meter: Long Meter (8,8,8,8)
O ’tis a glorious mystery
’Tis a wonder!
That I should ever saved be,
’Tis a wonder!
No heart can think, no tongue can tell,
’Tis a wonder!
The love of God unspeakable,
’Tis a wonder!
Great mystery that God should place,
’Tis a wonder!
His love on any of Adam’s race,
’Tis a wonder!
That I should also share a part,
’Tis a wonder!
And find a mansion in His heart,
’Tis a wonder!
