lyrics

How deep the Father’s love for us,
How vast beyond all measure;
That he should 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 Holy One,
To bring us home to glory.

Behold the Man upon a cross,
My sin 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.

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.
