How Deep The Father’s Love For Us – Stuart Townend
Posted by godwordistruth on 25 June, 2009

In this is love, not that we have loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins. 1 John 4:10
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
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
I will not boast in anything
No gifts, no power, 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

What a Blessing! WE SANG THIS IN CHURCH TODAY, and I wanted to sing it again, but wasn’t sure of the words.
Then I felt to google it, and here we are. PRAISE GOD and many blessings to you Stuart for having it on line!
Meryl.
