Full Lyrics
And can it be? and can it be?
And can it be that I should gain
An int'rest 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, 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.
Amazing love, how can it be?
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.
Amazing love, how can it be
that Thou, my God shouldst die for me?
Amazing love, how can it be?
Amazing love!
