2 verse:
Come behold the wondrous mystery
He, the perfect Son of Man
In His living, in His suffering
Never trace nor stain of sin.
See the true and better Adam
Come to save the hell-bound man
Christ the great and sure fulfillment
Of the law, in Him we stand.
3 verse:
Come behold the wondrous mystery
Christ, the Lord upon the tree
In the stead of ruined sinners
Hangs the Lamb in victory.
See the price of our redemption
See the Father's plan unfold
Bringing many sons to glory
Grace unmeasured, love untold.
4 verse:
Come behold the wondrous mystery
Slain by death, the God of life
But no grave could e'er restrain Him
Praise the Lord, He is alive.
||: What a foretaste of deliverance
How unwavering our hope
Christ in power resurrected
As we will be, when He comes. :||
