I Stand Amazed

Verse 1

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

Chorus

How marvellous! How wonderful! And my song shall ever be: How marvellous! 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.
