How Great the Wisdom and the Love

1. How great the wisdom and the love

That filled the courts on high

And sent the Savior from above

To suffer, bleed, and die!

2. His precious blood He freely spilt;

His life He freely gave,

A sinless sacrifice for guilt,

A dying world to save.

How great the wisdom and the love

That filled the courts on high.

3. By strict obedience Jesus won

The prize with glory rife:

“Thy will, O God, not mine be done,”

Adorned His mortal life.

4. He marked the path and led the way,

And ev’ry point defines

To light and life and endless day

Where God’s full presence shines.

How great the wisdom and the love

That filled the courts on high.

How great, how glorious.

5. How great, how glorious, how complete

Redemption’s grand design,

Where justice, love, and mercy meet

In harmony divine!

How great the wisdom and the love,

How great, how glorious.

How great the wisdom and the love,

How glorious.
