And Can it Be Lyrics (Key Ab24)

d:-:d:r/m:-:-:s/f:l,:t,:r/d:-:-

1. And can it be that I should gain

And interest in the Saviour’s blood

Died He for me who caused His pain?

For me who Him to death pursued?

Amazing love how can it be that

That Thou my God shouldst die for me

Amazing love, how can it be that

Thou my God shouldst die for me DC.

2. ‘Tis mystery all! The immortal dies!

Who can explore His strange design?

In vain the first born seraph tries

To sound the depth of love Divine!

‘Tis mercy all! Let earth adore

Let angle-minds inquire no more

Amazing Love……….

3. He left His Father’s throne above

So free, so infinite His gracel

Emptied Himself of all but love,

And bled for Adam’s helpless race,

‘Tis mercy all! Immsense and free,

For, O my God, it found out me!

Amazing Love..

4. Long my imprisoned Spirit lay

Fast bound in sin and nature’s night

Thine eye diffused a quickening ray

I woke the dungeon flamed with light

My chains fell off, my heart was free,

I rose, went forth, and followed Thee.

Amazing Love..

5. No condemnation, now I dread

Jesus and all in Him, is mine

Alive in Him, my living Head,

And clothed in righteousness Divine

Bold I approach the eternal throne

And claim the crown, through Christ my own.

Amazing Love..
