[Verse 1]
D G
How deep the Father’s love for us,
D A
How vast beyond all measure,
D G
That He should give His only Son
D A D
To make a wretch His treasure.
D G
How great the pain of searing loss
D A
The Father turns His face away,
D G
As wounds which mar the Chosen One
D A D
Bring many sons to glory.
[Turn]
D G D/A G
[Verse 2]
D G
Behold the man upon a cross,
D A
My sin upon His shoulders;
D G
Ashamed, I hear my mocking voice
D A D
Call out among the scoffers.
D G
It was my sin that held Him there
D A
Until it was accomplished;
D G
His dying breath has brought me life
D A D
I know that it is finished.

[Verse 3]
D G
I will not boast in anything,
D Bm A
No gifts, no power, no wisdom;
D G
But I will boast in Jesus Christ,
D A D
His death and resurrection.
D G
Why should I gain from His reward?
D Bm A
I cannot give an answer;
D G
But this I know with all my heart
D A D
His wounds have paid my ransom.
