How deep the fathers love for us
How vast beyond all mea-sure
That He should give his on--ly son
And make a wretch His trea-sure
How great the pain of sear-ing loss
The Father turns His face away
As wounds which mar the Cho-sen One
Bring many son's to glo-ry
Behold the Man upon the cross
My sin upon His shoul-der
Ashamed I hear my mock-ing voice
Call out among the sco-ffers
It was my sin that held Him there
Until it was accom-plished
His dying breath has brought me life
I know that it is fin-ished
I will not boast in an-y----thing
No gifts no power no wis--dom
But I will boast in Je---sus Christ
His death and resurrec-tion
Why should I from His re---ward
I cannot give an an---swer
But this I know with all my heart
His wounds have paid my ran-som
Repeat the last four lines twice slowing down as you go.
Thanks and enjoy!
