Full Lyrics

VERSE 1 And can it be that I should gain an interest in the Saviour's blood Died he for me who caused his pain for me who him to death pursued. Amazing love how can it be that thou my God should die for me. CHORUS Amazing love how can it be that thou my God should die for me VERSE 2 'Tis Mystery all the immortal dies, who can explore His strange designs? In vain the firstborn seraph tries, To sound the depths of love divine. 'Tis mercy all! let earth adore let angel minds inquire no more. VERSE 3 He left his father's throne above, So free So infinite His grace, Emptied himself of all but love, And bled for Adam's helpless race, 'Tis mercy all immense and free; for, O my God it found out me. VERSE 4 Long my imprisoned spirit lay, Fast bound in sin and nature's night Thine eye diffused a quickening ray I woke the dungeon flamed with light My Chains fell off my heart was free; I rose went forth and followed Thee. VERSE 5 No Condemnation now I dread; Jesus and all in him is mine! Alive in him my living head, And clothed in righteousness divine. Bold I approach the 'ternal throne and claim the crown thro Christ my own.
