Wonderfully Well

"And [they] were beyond measure astonished, saying, He hath done all things well: He maketh both the deaf to hear, and the dumb to speak" (Mark 7:37).

There was a time I could not hear;
A time I could not speak.
I could not see what now is clear,
I was so very weak.

But God in mercy saw my plight
When I was deaf and dumb,
I heard His voice with great delight
Invite me then to come.

I came, and saw with eyes once blind;
My ears, once deaf, then heard!
My tongue, once dumb, was then inclined
To praise God for His Word!

Astonished at His love for me
That rescues me from hell,
I hear and speak and surely see:
My Lord does all things well!
