Wonder of the countless spheres
1
Wonder of the countless spheres!See the Son of God in tears!He by whom the worlds were made,He on whom our sins were laid.
2
See him bear the cross of shame;Hear the world revile his name:Lo! he dies that we may live,—All who on his name believe.
3
In the tomb behold him laidWhom the universe obeyed;See him rise, ascend to God,There to plead his precious blood.
4
Now he stands before the throne,Pleading for his loved, his own:"Father, I my life-blood gaveThese to ransom, these to save."
5
"If I go I'll come again,"Preach this gospel to all men;Now redemption's work goes on,Then redemption's work is done.
