### ————————— Verse 1: ———————————————————————————————————————————————————

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

### ————————— Verse 2: ———————————————————————————————————————————————————

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

### ————————— Verse 3: ———————————————————————————————————————————————————

I will not boast in anything no gifts no pow'r 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

But this I know with all my heart His wounds have paid my ransom
