When I behold Jesus Christ,
True God who died for me,
I wonder much at His love
As He hung on the tree.
Refrain:
What kind of love is this?
What kind of love is this?
You showed Your love, Jesus,
There to me on Calvary.
What kind of love is this?
What kind of love is this?
You showed Your love, Jesus,
There to me on Calvary.
For me You gave all Your love,
For me You suffered pain;
I find no words, nothing can
Your selflessness explain. Refrain
You had no sin, holy Lord,
But You were tortured, tried;
On Golgotha there for all
My sins You bled and died. Refrain
What love is this? Greater love
No one has ever known.
My life with God— this I owe
To You, and You alone. Refrain

This is one of my favorite newer hymns. The refrain makes if very child friendly. I also love the way we do it at our church. My husband plays it on piano, which I think works better than organ. He composed an introduction and interlude that is played by a flautist. I rarely get through this hymn without crying!
