Don't It Make You Wonder?
Psalm 8:3-4
Lyrics
Verse 1 [Psalm 8:3-4]
God says “Light!” and the heavens burn;
Stars ignite and the planets turn.
See God’s mastery,
Don’t it make you wonder?
Lift your eyes to the skies and see,
Space displays God’s artistry.
See His majesty,
Don’t it make you wonder
Why a God like that would choose to care,
Why He would think to love me?
Chorus
It’s outrageous love, it’s amazing grace,
Given undeserved and free. [Eph 2:8-9]
Yeah, it’s all God’s riches at Christ’s expense, [Eph 1:7]
Don’t it make you wonder
God would do so much for me?
Verse 2
God so loved us He chose to come,
Shed His splendour, and left His throne. [Phil 2:6-7]
God Emmanuel, [Isa 7:14; Matt 1:22-23]
Don’t it make you wonder?
God, through ages from us concealed,
Now in Jesus at last revealed; [Col 1:15]
God has come to us,
Don’t it make you wonder
Why a God so high would stoop so low? [John 1:14]
I cannot tell, but this I know:
Chorus
It’s outrageous love, it’s amazing grace,
Given undeserved and free.
Yeah, it’s all God’s riches at Christ’s expense,
Don’t it make you wonder
God would come so far for me?
Verse 3
Wider mercy there cannot be;
Deeper love than for you and me;
Jesus died for us. [John 15:13]
Don’t it make you wonder?
Jesus died, so our debt is paid; [Col 2:13-14]
Rose again, living proof is laid! [1 Cor 15:3-8]
God has ransomed us,
Don’t it make you wonder
Why a God so great would choose to give
His only Son that I might live? [John 3:16]
Chorus
It’s outrageous love, it’s amazing grace,
Given undeserved and free.
Yeah, it’s all God’s riches at Christ’s expense,
Don’t it make you wonder?
Don’t it make you think?
It’s outrageous love, it’s amazing grace,
Given undeserved and free.
We’ve got all God’s riches at Christ’s expense,
Don’t it make you wonder
God would do it all for me?
