Behold, The Wonders of the Cross

(Tune: #497 When I Can Read My Title Clear -- CM)

1. Creation’s open volume stands,

    And speaks God’s praise abroad,

    And everything, made by His hands,

    Declares that He is God.

 

2. But in the grace that rescued man

    God’s brightest glory shines,

    For on the cross (How wise the plan!)

    It’s drawn in crimson lines!

 

3. Behold, the wonders of the cross,

    Where God our Savior died.

    My spirit life eternal draws

    From Jesus’ bleeding side!

 

4. I shall forever praise the name

    Of God all-wise alone,

    Whose glory’s seen in Christ the Lamb,

    Whose blood for sin atoned!
