'T was wondrous depth of heavenly love

1

'T was wondrous depth of heavenly loveThat brought our Saviour from aboveTo walk with men, a sinful race,To seek and save them by his grace.

2

He left his own majestic bliss,To sojourn in a world like this;Not to be honored as deserved,But he was here as one who served.

3

He was a true and constant friend;He loved his chosen to the end;And to impress a lesson meet,He washed his dear disciples' feet.

4

"Ye call me Lord, and that is true;Then do as I have done to you;Since 't is your privilege to know,You will be happy if you do."
