C F
how deep the father’s love for us ,
Am G
how vast beyond all measure
C F
that he should give his only son
Am G
to make a wretch his treasure

C F
how great the pain of searing loss ,
Am G
the father turns his face away
C F
as wounds which mar the chosen one ,
Am G
bring many sons to glory

C F
behold the man upon a cross ,
Am G
my sin upon his shoulders
C F
ashamed i hear my mocking voice ,
Am G
call out among the scoffers

instrumental
repeat intro x4

C F
it was my sin that held him there
Am G
until it was accomplished
C F
his dying breath has brought me life
Am G
i know that it is finished

C F
i will not boast in anything
Am G
no gifts , no power , no wisdom
C F
but i will boast in jesus christ
Am G
his death and resurrection

C F
why should i gain from his reward?
Am G
i cannot give an answer
C F
but this i know with all my heart
Am G
his wounds have paid my ransom

C F
this , i know with all my heart ,
Am G C
his wounds have paid my ransom .

notes :
– > in the intro , you can change the 3rd string , 12th fret to 2nd string 8 if you think the first
one is too stretchy . both of them sounds the same so it’s up to you .
– > in the last part in , “this i know . . . . ” , one down strum sounds good , but it’s up to you how you
want to play it .

well , that’s about it guys . thanks for stopping bye and reading this tab , god bless everyone! : )
