Verse 1
I Stand amaz’d in the presence
Of Jesus the Nazarene,
And wonder how He could love me,
A sinner, condemn’d, unclean.
How marvellous! how wonderful!
And my song shall ever be:
How marvelous! how wonderful!
Is my Saviour’s love for me!
Verse 2
For me it was in the garden
He prayed- “Not My will, but
Thine:”
He Had no tears for His own griefs
But sweat drops of blood for mine
Verse 3
In pity angels beheld Him,
And came from the world of light
To comfort Him in the sorrows
He bore for my soul that night
Verse 4
He took my sins and my sorrows,
He made them His very own;
He bore the burden to Calvary,
And suffered, and died alone.
Verse 5
When with the ransomed in glory
His face I at last shall see,
‘Twill be my joy through the ages
To sing of His love for me.
C. H. Gabriel.
