lyrics

What wondrous love is this, oh my soul, oh my soul
What wondrous love is this, oh my soul
What wondrous love is this
That caused the Lord of Bliss, oh
To send this perfect peace to my soul
Oh my, oh my, oh my soul, oh my soul

When I was sinking down, sinking down, oh my soul
When I was sinking down, oh my soul
When I was sinking down
I stopped and looked around
And there I heard the sound of my soul
Oh my, oh my, oh my soul, oh my soul

To God and to his man I will sing I'm gonna sing
To God and to his man I'm gonna sing
To God and to his man, who is afraid I am not
What wondrous love is this, oh my soul
Oh my, oh my soul
Oh my soul, oh my, oh my, oh my soul
Oh my my my my, oh my, oh my soul
Oh my, oh my soul, oh my, oh my, oh my soul
Oh my, oh my soul, oh my, oh my soul
Oh my, oh my, oh my soul
To God and to his man, who is afraid I am not

What wondrous love is this, oh my soul
Oh my, oh my soul, oh my soul

(Traditional, arranged and adapted by Melanie Safka)

about

Melanie Nashville, Tennessee

Pieces of a career, scattered by the winds of experience and assembled again by the force of love into the most personal and brilliant moments of her musical journey. Melanie is poised to enlighten new generations about what it means to sing with both passion and eloquence, to write at once with intelligence and emotion, and to inspire through song. Nobody does this better.
