(Verse)
A

nd can be that I should gain,
an interest in my 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 Lord should die for me?

(Chorus)
Amaz

ing love, how can it be
That thou my God should die for me?

(Verse)
H

e 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

(Chorus)
Amaz

ing love, how can it be
That thou my God should die for me?

(Verse)
L

ong my imprisoned spirit lay,
Fast bound in sin and nature’s night,
Thine eye diffused a quickening ray,
I woke, the dungeon flamed with light;
My chains fell off, my heart was free,
I rose, went forth and followed thee

(Chorus)
Amaz

ing love, how can it be
That thou my God should die for me?

(Verse)
N

o condemnation now I dread,
Jesus, and all in Him, is mine;
Alive in Him, my living Head
and clothed with righteousness divine,
Bold I approach the eternal throne,
And claim the crown through Christ, my own

(Chorus)
Amaz

ing love, how can it be
That thou my God should die for me?
