Refrain: O a wonderful Savior is Jesus, Yes, a wonderful Savior is He; In mercy He came, O blest be His name, For a wonderful Savior is He. 2 Despised by His people and cursed by His kind, He suffered and died on the tree; A stranger, He found me a captive of sin, He bought me and let me go free. [Refrain] 3 He guarded and led me, He strengthened my soul, Forgave me when sometimes I fell; His love never failed me, His patience I know The tongue of man never can tell.
