Wondrous Love


Wondrous Love
Aaron Shust

That You would leave Your throne 
Making this world Your home
forsaking majesty
embracing mundane and all of its shame
You walked our dusty streets
healing the world in need 
You looked into the eyes of sinners, like me
setting us free

What wondrous love is this -
that You would lay aside your glory for my soul

They nailed Your feet - they nailed Your hands
You are the God who understands
You know rejection, loss and grief
You loved a world that nailed You to a tree

What wondrous love is this -
that You would lay aside your glory for my soul.
that You would lay down your life for my soul...
