How Deep the Father's Love for Us
Verse 1How deep the Father's love for usHow vast beyond all measureThat He should give His only SonTo make a wretch His treasureHow great the pain of searing lossThe Father turns His face awayAs wounds which mar the Chosen OneBring many sons to glory
Verse 2Behold the Man upon a crossMy sin upon His shouldersAshamed I hear my mocking voiceCall out among the scoffersIt was my sin that held Him thereUntil it was accomplishedHis dying breath has brought me lifeI know that it is finished
Verse 3I will not boast in anythingNo gifts no pow’r no wisdomBut I will boast in Jesus ChristHis death and resurrectionWhy should I gain from His rewardI cannot give an answerBut this I know with all my heartHis wounds have paid my ransomWhy should I gain from His rewardI cannot give an answerBut this I know with all my heartHis wounds have paid my ransom
