Come behold the wondrous myst'ry 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
Come behold the wondrous myst'ry He the perfect Son of Man
In His living in His suff'ring never trace nor stain of sin
See the true and better Adam come to save the hellbound man
Christ the great and sure fulfillment of the law in Him we stand
Come behold the wondrous myst'ry Christ the Lord upon the tree
In the stead of ruined sinners hangs the Lamb in victory
See the price of our redemption see the Father's plan unfold
Bringing many sons to glory grace unmeasured love untold
Come behold the wondrous myst'ry 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 deliv'rance how unwavering our hope
Christ in power resurrected as we will be when He comes
