512. 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 thru the ages
To sing of His love for me. [Refrain]
