And can it be that I should gain
An interest in the Saviour'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
Amazing love, how can it be
That thou, my God, shouldst die for me
That thou, my God, shouldst die for me
He left his father's throne above
So free, so infinite his grace
Emptied himself of all but love
And bled for me to die
And bled for Adam's helpless race
Tis mercy all, immense and free
For, oh, my God, it found out me
Tis mercy all, immense and free
For, oh, my God, it found out me
Long my imprisoned spirit lay
Fast bound in sin and nature's night
Thine I diffused a quickening ray
I woke the dungeon flame
Famed with light
My chains fell off
My heart was free
I rose, went forth
And followed thee
My chains fell off
My heart was free
I rose, went forth
And followed thee
I rose, went forth
No condemnation now I dread
Jesus and all in him is mine
Alive in him, my living head
Enclothed in righteousness divine
Bold I shall be, bold I shall be
Bold I approach the eternal throne
And claim the crown through Christ my own
Bold I approach the eternal throne
And claim the crown through Christ my own
