Refrain (For verses 2,4, and 5)
1. Plunged in a gulf of dark despair, We wretched sinners lay, Without one cheering beam of hope, Or spark of glimmering day. | 2. With pitying eyes the Prince of peace Beheld our helpless grief: He saw, and, O amazing love! He ran to our relief. | 3. Down from the shining seats above With joyful haste he sped fled, Entered the grave in mortal flesh, And dwelt among the dead. | 4. O for this love let rocks and hills Their lasting silence break; And all harmonious human tongues, The Savior's praises speak! | 5. Angels, assist our mighty joys, Strike all your harps of gold; But when you raise your highest notes, His love can ne'er be told. | Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah. | |
