How Beautiful ~ Twila Paris







How Beautiful the hands that served

The Wine and the Bread and the sons of the earth

How beautiful the feet that walked

The long dusty road and the hill to the cross


How Beautiful, how beautiful,
               
How beautiful is the body of Christ.



How Beautiful the heart that bled

That took all my sins and bore it instead

How beautiful the tender eyes

That choose to forgive and never despise


How beautiful, how beautiful,

how beautiful is the body of Christ.



And as He lay down His life

We offer this sacrifice

That we will live just as He died

Willing to pay the price,

Willing to pay the price...



How Beautiful the radiant bride

Who waits for her groom 

with His light in her eyes.

How Beautiful when humble hearts give

The fruit of pure love so others may live

How beautiful, how beautiful,

how beautiful is the body of Christ.
