How the matchless Son of God Left His home of heav’nly glory, and for us He interposed His precious blood. Refrain: Glory, glory hallelujah, To the Lamb once slain upon the tree, Now He pleads before His Father’s throne above, And intercedes for you and me. 2 Oh! what love is here abounding! How it human love transcends! Jesus dies to bring His enemies to God, To reconcile and make us friends. [Refrain] 3 Who will slight His tender pleading? Who resist such melting love? Come accept His free and full salvation now, And then we’ll reign with Him above. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Oh! how wondrous is the story]
