Hymn of The Month
.. at our church. Which means we'll probably sing it 3 Sundays.
(I'm so excited!!)
And can it be that I should gain
An interest in the Savior’s blood?
Died He for me, who caused His pain—
For me, who scorned His perfect blood?
Amazing love! How can it be,
That Thou, my God, would die for me?
Amazing love! How can it be,
That Thou, my God, would die for me?
You left Your Father's throne above,
So free and infinite Your grace;
Emptied Yourself of all but love,
And bled for Adam's helpless race
Long 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.
Amazing love! How can it be,
That Thou, my God, should die for me?
No condemnation now I dread;
Jesus, and all in Him, is mine!
Alive in Him, my living Head,
And clothed in righteousness Divine,
Bold I approach the eternal throne,
And claim the crown, through Christ my own.
Bold I approach the eternal throne,
And claim the crown, through Christ my own.
