Representative Text

1 O love, amazing love,
That wounded thou should’st be
For my transgressions, Lord,
And sacrificed for me.

Refrain:
Love my ransom paid,
Love my sorrow bore,
Love has opened the gate of life;
That Love will I adore.

2 Thou, like a gentle lamb,
Wast to the slaughter led,
My guilty sins were laid
Upon thy guiltless head. [Refrain]

3 The law my soul condemns,
I have no refuge there;
The law for vengeance calls,
But Mercy cries forbear. [Refrain]

4 Yes, ‘till my latest hour,
And with my latest breath,
Thy wondrous love I’ll sing,
E’en thro’ the gates of death. [Refrain]
