What We Sang Today - And Can It Be

And can it be that I should gain an interest in the Savior’s blood?
Died he for me, who caused his pain? For me, who him to death pursued?
Amazing love! How can it be that thou, my God, shouldst die for me?

Chorus: Amazing love! How can it be that thou, my God, shouldst die for me?

‘Tis mystery all! Th’Immortal dies: who can explore his strange design?
In vain the firstborn seraph tries to sound the depths of love divine.
‘Tis mercy all! Let earth adore, let angel minds inquire no more. Chorus

He left his Father’s throne above - so free, so infinite his grace!
Humbled himself  - so great his love! And bled for all his chosen race.
‘Tis mercy all, immense and free; for, O my God, it found out me. Chorus

No condemnation now I dread; Jesus, and all in him, is mine!
Alive in him, my living Head, and clothed in righteousness divine,
Bold I approach th’eternal throne, and claim the crown, through Christ my own. Chorus

Charles Wesley
