How Deep the Father's Love for Us

Juli's piano playing... Elesha's disembodied voice lol =)
Our current favorite song.
"Behold, what manner of love the Father has bestowed upon us; that we should be called the sons of God." Cant.

How Deep the Father's Love for Us

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 scorners.

It was my sin that held Him there
Until it was accomplished.
His dying breath has bought 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.
