Verse 1
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 Him to death pursued
Amazing love, how can it be
That thou, my God should die for me
Refrain
Amazing love, how can it be
That thou, my God, should die for me
Verse 2
He 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
‘Tis mercy all, immense and free
For, O my God, it found out me
Verse 3
Long my imprisoned spirit lay
Fastbound in sin and naturе’s night
Thine eye diffusеd 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
My chains fell off, my heart was free
I rose, went forth, and followed Thee
Verse 4
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
