Lyrics

And can it be that I should gain
An interest in the Savior'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

Amazing love, how can it be
That Thou, my God, should die for me

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

Amazing love, how can it be
That Thou, my God, should die for me

Long my imprisoned spirit lay
Fast bound in sin and nature's night
Thine eye diffused a quick'ning ray
I woke, the dungeon flamed with light
My chains fell off, my heart was free
I rose, went forth and followed Thee

Amazing love, how can it be
That Thou, my God, should die for me

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 eternal throne
And claim the crown through Christ my own

Amazing love, how can it be
That Thou, my God, should die for me

Amazing love, how can it be
That Thou, my God, should die for me
