Author: Charles H. Gabriel, 1856-1932 Hymnal: Worship and Service Hymnal #124 (1957) First Line: I stand all amazed at the love Jesus offers me Refrain First Line: Oh, it is wonderful that He should care for me Lyrics: 1 I stand all amazed at the love Jesus offers me,
Confused at the grace that so fully He proffers me;
I tremble to know that for me He was crucified—-
That for me, a sinner, He suffered, He bled, and died.
Refrain;
Oh, it is wonderful that He should care for me,
Enough to die for me!
Oh, it is wonderful, wonderful to me!
2 I marvel that He would descend from His throne divine,
To rescue a soul so rebellious and proud as mine;
That He should extend His great love unto such as I;
Sufficient to own, to redeem, and to justify. (Refrain)
3 I think of His hands pierced and bleeding to pay the debt!
Such mercy, such love and devotion can I forget?
No, no! I will praise and adore at the mercy seat,
Until at the glorified throne I kneel at His feet. (Refrain)
