Song: How Deep the Father's Love For Us
Written by: Stuart Townsend

In honor of this very important weekend, I'll be singing a different song each day about the sacrifice that was made for all of us on the cross, and the miracle of Jesus' Resurrection on Easter Morning! Enjoy and stay tuned for the next two songs!

---------------------------------

Words:
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 the 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 inJesus 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
(REPEAT)

    I Agree, It Does Not Matter What Your Beliefs Are, (I'm An Atheist As Well, But) You And I Are Brothers In The Eyes Of (The) God(s), Buddha, Gandhi, And Science, Etc., And All, ^_^ You Are An Amazing Singer And A Very Gifted Soul ^_^ (Before Anyone Says Anything Related To A Soul, Souls Are Real, When People Say Their Hearts Are -Insert Emotion, Action, Ect... Here- The Actual Heart Doesn't Feel That, It's Your Brain, So The Metaphorically Heart Is What I Believe The Soul Is ^_^)
