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, should die for me?
Amazing love! How can it be?
That Thou, my God, should die for me!

He left His Father's throne above
So free, so infinite His grace
Emptied Himself and came in 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?
That Thou, my God, should die for me!

Long my imprisoned spirit lay
Fast bound in sin and nature's night
Thine eye diffused a quick'ning ray
I woke, the dungeon flamed with light

My chains fell off, my heart was free
I rose, went forth and followed Thee
Amazing love! How can it be?
That Thou, my God, should die for 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
Amazing love! How can it be?
That Thou, my God, should die for me!

Amazing love! How can it be?
That Thou, my God, should die for me!
