My Savior's Love

1 I stand amazed in the presence  
Of Jesus, the Nazarene,  
And wonder how He could love me,  
A sinner, condemned, unclean.  

Refrain:  
How marvelous! How wonderful!  
And my song shall ever be:  
How marvelous! How wonderful!  
Is my Savior's love for me!  

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. [Refrain]  

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. [Refrain]  

4 He took my sins and my sorrows;  
He made them His very own.  
He bore the burden to Calv'ry  
And suffered and died alone. [Refrain]  

5 When with the ransomed in glory  
His face I at last shall see,  
'Twill be my joy thro' the ages  
To sing of His love for me. [Refrain]
