And can it be that I should gain an interest in the Saviour’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, shouldst die for me?
Amazing love! How can it be that Thou, my God, shouldst die for me?
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
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 th’eternal throne, and claim the crown through Christ my own
Bold I approach th’eternal throne, and claim the crown through Christ my own
