Verse 1:How deep the Father’s love for us, How vast beyond all measure That He would give His only Son, to make a wretch His treasure How great the pain of searing loss, the Father turns His face away As wounds which mar the chosen One, bring many sons to glory
Verse 2: Behold the Man upon a cross, my guilt upon His shoulders Ashamed, I hear my mocking voice call out among the scoffers It was my sin that held Him there until it was accomplished His dying breath has brought me life, I know that it is finished
Verse 3: I will not boast in anything, no gifts, no power, no wisdom But I will boast in Jesus Christ; His death and resurrection Why should I gain from His reward? I cannot give an answer But this I know with all my heart His wounds have paid my ransom
