Sing them over again to me,
Wonderful words of life;
Let me more of their beauty see,
Wonderful words of life.

Teach me faith and duty;

Wonderful words of life,
Beautiful words, wonderful words,

All so freely given,
Wooing us to heaven;

Sweetly echo the gospel call,
Wonderful words of life;
Offer pardon and peace to all,
Wonderful words of life.

Sanctify forever;
