Verse 1
    E                 F#m  E/G# A2
How deep the Father's love for  us,
    E/G#            C#m Bsus
How vast beyond all mea-sure.
     E                  F#m  E/G# A2
That He should give His on - ly   son,
   E B               Bsus B E
To make a wretch His trea - sure.
    E/G#              F#m E/G# A
How great the pain of searing  loss,
    E/G#             C#m   Bsus
The Father turns His face away.
   E                    F#m E/G# A2
As wounds which mar the Cho-sen  One,
      E B          B7sus4 B  E 
Bring many sons to glo -  - ry.

Verse 2
  E             F#m E/G# A2
Behold the Man upon the  cross,
   E/G#         C#m  B7sus4
My sin upon His shoulders,
 E                F#m E/G# A2
Ashamed I hear my mocking  voice,
     E B           B7sus4 B7 E
Call out among the scoff- - -ers.
   E/G#            F#m C# E B A
It was my sin that held   Him there,
  E/G#        C#m  B7sus4
Until it was accomplished. 
    E                F#m     E/G# A2
His dying breath has brought me   life,
  E B             B7sus4 B7  E  
I know that it is fin- - - -ished.

Verse 3
  E                 F#m E/G# A2
I will not boast in an- y -  thing,
   E/G#                C#m B7sus4  B7 
No gifts, no pow'r, no wis-dom.
    E               F#m E/G# A2
But I will boast in Je- sus  Christ,
    E B            B7sus4 B7 E
His death and resurrec- - - -tion.
    E/G#               F#m C# E B A
Why should I gain from His    re- ward?
  E/G#           C#m B7sus4  B7 
I cannot give an ans-wer.
    E                F#m E/G# A2
But this I know with all my   heart,
    E B                 B7sus4 B  E  
His wounds have paid my ran- - - som.
