Hymn of the Week: Isn't the Love of Jesus Something Wonderful!

Do you feel loved? You are loved! John 3:16 reminds us that "God so loved the world," and this hymn helps us to meditate on His love for us.

Two key descriptions of His love are "boundless" and "beyond our human comprehending." It is not possible for us to fully understand the greatness of His infinite love for us...or as the chorus says, "Wonderful it is to me." It was this love that brought Him to earth to bear the punishment for our sins on the cross.

Meditate on His love! It will encourage your day. "There will never be a sweeter story....This will be my theme and never ending, Great redeeming love of Calvary."

Words and music by John W. Peterson

Isn't the Love of Jesus Something Wonderful!

There will never be a sweeter story—
Story of the Savior's love divine,
Love that bro't Him from the realms of glory
Just to save a sinful soul like mine.

Refrain
Isn't the love of Jesus something wonderful, wonderful, wonderful;
O isn't the love of Jesus something wonderful!
Wonderful it is to me.

Boundless as the universe around me,
Reaching to the farthest soul away—
Saving, keeping love it was that found me,
That is why my heart can truly say:

Refrain

Love beyond our human comprehending,
Love of God in Christ—how can it be!
This will be my theme and never ending,
Great redeeming love of Calvary.
