How Deep The Father's Love
How deep the Father's love for us, how vast beyond all measure
That He should give His only Son, to make a wretch His treasure
How great the pain of searing loss! The Father turns His face away
As wounds which mar the chosen one bring many sons to glory
Behold the Man upon a cross! My sin upon His shoulders
Ashamed I hear my mocking voice call out among the scoffers.
It was my sin that held Him there until it was accomplished!
His dying breath has brought me life, I know that "it is finished."
I will not boast in anything, no gifts, no power, no wisdom
But I will boast in Jesus Christ, His death and resurrection!
Why should I gain from His reward? I cannot give an answer...
