Based on the Appalachian Folk Hymn from Southern Harmony with new music, What Wondrous Love showcases the sacrifice Christ made on the cross. This emotive arrangement features a descending melodic figure in the piano accompaniment that paints the recurring portion of the text When I was sinking down. This anthem is a blend of despair of Christ's death and the hope of the resurrection.
