{c: Verse 1}

How [D]deep the Father's [Em]love [D/F#]for [G]us
How [D/F#]vast beyond all [D/A]mea[A]sure
That [D]He should give His [Em]on[D/F#]ly [G]Son
To [D/F#]make a wretch His [A]trea[D]sure

How [D]great the pain of [Em]sear[D/F#]ing [G]loss
The [D/F#]Father turns His [Bm]face a[A]way
As [D]wounds which mar the [Em]Cho[D/F#]sen [G]One
Bring [D/F#]many sons to [A]glo - [D]ry [|][ ][G/B][ ][-][ ][|][ ][D/A][ ][D][ ][-][ ][|][ ][G2][ ][-][ ][-][ ][|]

{c: Verse 2}

Be[D]hold the Man up[Em]on [D/F#]a [G]cross
My [D/F#]sin upon His [D/A]shoul[A]ders
A[D]shamed I hear my [Em]mock[D/F#]ing [G]voice
Call [D/F#]out among the [A]scof[D]fers

It [D]was my sin that [Em]held [D/F#]Him [G]there
Un[D/F#]til it was ac[Bm]com[A]plished
His [D]dying breath has [Em]brought [D/F#]me [G]life
I [D/F#]know that it is [A]fin - [D]ished [|][ ][G/B][ ][-][ ][|][ ][D/A][ ][D][ ][-][ ][|][ ][G2][ ][-][ ][-][ ][|]

{c: Verse 3}

I [D]will not boast in [Em]an[D/F#]y[G]thing
No [D/F#]gifts no power no [D/A]wis[A]dom
But [D]I will boast in [Em]Je[D/F#]sus [G]Christ
His [D/F#]death and resur[A]rec[D]tion

Why [D]should I gain from [Em]His [D/F#]re[G]ward
I [D/F#]cannot give an [Bm]an[A]swer
But [D]this I know with [Em]all [D/F#]my [G]heart
His [D/F#]wounds have paid my [A]ran[D]som

{c: Verse 1}
Here is [G]love, vast as the o[C]cean,
Loving[G]kindness as the [D]flood,
When the [G]Prince of Life, our [C]Ransom,
Shed for [G]us His [D]precious [G]blood.
{soc}
Who His [G]love will not [D]remember?
Who can [D]cease to sing His [G]praise?
He can [Em]never be for[C]gotten,
Throughout [G]Heav'n's [D]eternal [G]days.
{eoc}

{c: Verse 2}
On the [G]mount of crucifi[C]xion,
Fountains [G]opened deep and [D]wide;
Through the [G]floodgates of God's [C]mercy
Flowed a [G]vast and [D]gracious [G]tide.
{soc}
Grace and [G]love, like mighty [D]rivers,
Poured in[D]cessant from a[G]bove,
And Heav'n's [Em]peace and perfect [C]justice
Kissed a [G]guilty [D]world in [G]love.

Let me [G]all Thy love ac[C]cepting,
Love Thee, [G]ever all my [D]days;
Let me [G]seek Thy kingdom [C]only
And my [G]life be [D]to Thy [G]praise;
{soc}
Thou a[G]lone shalt be my [D]glory,
Nothing [D]in the world I [G]see.
Thou hast [Em]cleansed and sancti[C]fied me,
Thou Thy[G]self hast [D]set me [G]free.
{eoc}

{c: Verse 4}
In Thy [G]truth Thou dost direct [C]me
By Thy [G]Spirit through Thy [D]Word;
And Thy [G]grace my need is [C]meeting,
As I [G]trust in [D]Thee, my [G]Lord.
{soc}
Of Thy [G]fullness Thou art [D]pouring
Thy great [D]love and power on [G]me,
Without [Em]measure, full and [C]boundless,
Drawing [G]out my [D]heart to [G]Thee.
