Come Behold the Wondrous Mystery

[Verse 1]

Come behold the wondrous mystery in the dawning of the King

He the theme of heaven’s praises robed in frail humanity

In our longing, in our darkness, now the light of life has come

Look to Christ, Who condescended, took on flesh to ransom us

[Verse 2]

Come behold the wondrous mystery, He the perfect Son of Man

In His living, in His suffering, never trace nor stain of sin

See the true and better Adam come to save the hell-bound man

Christ the great and sure fulfillment of the Law, in Him we stand

[Verse 3]

Come behold the wondrous mystery, Christ the Lord upon the tree

In the stead of ruined sinners hangs the Lamb in victorty

See the price of our redemption, see the Father’s plan unfold

Bringing many sons to glory, grace unmeasured, love untold

[Verse 4]

Come behold the wondrous mystery, slain by death the God of life

But no grave could e’er restrain Him, praise the Lord, He is alive

What a foretaste of deliverance, how unwavering our hope

Christ in power, resurrected, as we will be when He comes

[Tag]

What a foretaste of deliverance, how unwavering our hope

Christ in power, resurrected, as we will be when He comes
