Wonderful Words of Life

1.	Sing them over again to me, 
	wonderful words of life; 
	let me more of their beauty see, 
	wonderful words of life; 
	words of life and beauty 
	teach me faith and duty.

Refrain: 
	Beautiful words, wonderful words, 
	wonderful words of life. 
	Beautiful words, wonderful words, 
	wonderful words of life.

2.	Christ, the blessed one, gives to all 
	wonderful words of life; 
	sinner, list to the loving call,
	wonderful words of life; 
	all so freely given, 
	wooing us to heaven. 
	(Refrain)

3.	Sweetly echo the gospel call, 
	wonderful words of life; 
	offer pardon and peace to all, 
	wonderful words of life; 
	Jesus, only Savior, 
	sanctify forever. 
	(Refrain)
