215. Is It Not Wonderful?

1 I heard a voice saying, "Come unto Me,"
Is it not wonderful?
"I have redeeemd thee, from sin set your free;"
Is it not wonderful?

Chorus:
Is it not wonderful?
Is it not wonderful?
His dying for me,
From my sins set me free,
Is it not wonderful?

2 when I am tempted, to Jesus I go;
Is it not wonderful?
Strength He doth give me to conquer each foe;
Is it not wonderful? [Chorus]

3 I have not found such a friend anywhere;
Is it not wonderful?
He never leaves me lest I should despair;
Is it not wonderful? [Chorus]
