I am not skilled to understand
What God hath willed, what God hath planned,
I only know at his right hand
Stands one who is my Saviour.

I take Him at His word indeed;
Christ died for sinners"-this I read;
For in my heart I find a need
Of Him to be my Savior

That He should leave His place on high
And come for sinful man to die,
You count it strange? So once did,
Before I knew my Savior!

That He should leave His place on high
And come for sinful man to die,
You count it strange? so once did I,
Before I knew my Savior

Yea, living, dying, let me bring
My strength, my solace from this spring
That He Who lives to be my King
Once died to be my Savior!
