Sunday's Song

I Stand Amazed
(My Savior's Love)

I stand amazed in the presence

Of Jesus the Nazarene
And wonder how He could love me
A sinner, condemned, unclean


O how marvelous! O how wonderful!
And my song shall ever be
O how marvelous! O how wonderful!
Is my Savior's love for me!


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


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


He took my sins and my sorrows
He made them His very own
He bore the burden to Calvary
And suffered and died alone


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
--Charles H. Gabriel
