Hymns For Life V

We sang this at our 30th Anniversary Celebration at church on Sunday. They had a wonderful time where you could request hymns. Then we sang "Wonderful Grace of Jesus". My soul was lifted. I had never heard this hymn before and not only were the words powerful, the tune was very uplifting.

Wonderful grace of Jesus,

greater than all my sin;

How shall my tongue describe it,

where shall its praise begin?

Taking away my burden,

setting my spirit free,

For the wonderful grace of Jesus reaches me!

Wonderful grace of Jesus,

reaching to all the lost,

By it I have been pardoned,

saved to the uttermost;

Chains have been torn asunder,

giving me liberty,

For the wonderful grace of Jesus reaches me!

Wonderful grace of Jesus,

reaching the most defiled,

By its transforming power,

making him God’s dear child.

Purchasing peace and heaven for all eternity;

And the wonderful grace of Jesus reaches me!

CHORUS: Wonderful the matchless grace of Jesus,

Deeper than the mighty rolling sea;

Higher than the mountain, sparkling like a fountain,

All-sufficient grace for even me;

Broader than the scope of my transgressions,

Greater far than all my sin and shame;

O magnify the precious name of Jesus, praise His name!

What a great reminder of God's grace for me. You can YouTube it to hear the tune of the song because it really helps with the lifting of your heart. Here's a YouTube video of a gospel quartet singing this hymn!!!
