THEME: The magnitude of our salvation, that we were dead and God made us alive, should awaken the loudest praise we can muster. What love but God's could run so deep, and extend so low, and raise to such height?
View Lead SheetAnd 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
HOW CAN IT BE MY DEBT WAS PAID
MY SIN ERASED, YOUR WRATH WAS STAYED?
THE LAMB WAS SLAIN, ATONEMENT MADE!
ALL THANKS AND PRAISE TO YOU GREAT GOD OF LOVE
You left your Father's throne above
So free, so infinite your grace
Emptied yourself of all but love
And died for Adam's helpless race
TIS MERCY ALL, IMMENSE AND FREE
FOR O MY GOD, IT FOUND OUT ME
AMAZING LOVE, HOW CAN IT BE!
ALL THANKS AND PRAISE TO YOU GREAT GOD OF LOVE
Long my imprisoned spirit lay
Fastbound in sin and nature's night
Your eye diffused a quick'ning ray
I woke, the dungeon flamed with light
MY CHAINS FELL OFF, MY HEART WAS FREE
I ROSE, WENT FORTH, AND FOLLOWED THEE
BOTH NOW AND THROUGH ETERNITY
ALL THANKS AND PRAISE TO YOU GREAT GOD OF LOVE
No condemnation now I dread
Jesus and all in Him is mine
Alive in Him, my living Head
And clothed in righteousness divine
I BOLDLY COME BEFORE YOUR THRONE
NOW MAKE YOUR WILL AND PURPOSE KNOWN
I CLAIM THE CROWN, THROUGH CHRIST, MY OWN
ALL THANKS AND PRAISE TO YOU GREAT GOD OF LOVE
