Verse 1: Eb Ab Eb And can it be that I should gain Ab6 Eb An interest in the Saviour's blood? Bb/D Cm7 Died He for me who caused His pain, Ab Fm7 Bbsus4 Bb For me who Him to death pursued. Ab Eb Amazing love, how can it be Bbsus4 Bb That Thou my God shouldst die for me? Ab Cm7 Amazing love, how can it be Eb Bbsus4 Bb Eb Ab/Eb Eb That Thou my God shouldst die for me? Verse 2: 'Tis mystery all the Immortal dies, Who can explore His strange design? In vain the first-born seraph tries To sound the depths of love divine. 'Tis mercy all let earth adore, Let angel minds inquire no more. 'Tis mercy all let earth adore, Let angel minds inquire no more. Verse 3: He left His Father's throne above, So free, so infinite His grace. Emptied Himself of all but love And bled for Adam's helpless race. 'Tis mercy all immense and free, For O my God, it found out me. 'Tis mercy all immense and free, For O my God, it found out me. Verse 4: Long my imprisoned spirit lay Fast bound in sin and nature's light. Thine eye diffused a quickening ray, I woke, the dungeon flamed 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. Verse 5: 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 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.
