Sorry for doing two posts in one day. :-/
This song just came to my head while doing my morning Bible study and I wanted to share it. It always gives me chills when I sing and play it on the piano. It has such a beautiful melody that fits soo well with the words!
How Deep the Father's Love For Us
Stuart Townend
How deep the Father's love for us,
How vast beyond all measure
That He should give His only Son
To make a wretch His treasure
How great the pain of searing loss,
The Father turns His face away
As wounds which mar the chosen One,
Bring many sons to glory
Behold the Man upon a cross,
My sin upon His shoulders
Ashamed I hear my mocking voice,
Call out among the scoffers
It was my sin that left Him there
Until it was accomplished
His dying breath has brought me life
I know that it is finished
I will not boast in anything
No gifts, no power, no wisdom
But I will boast in Jesus Chrsit
His death and resurrection
Why should I gain from His reward?
I cannot give an answer
But this I know with all my heart
His wounds have paid my ransom
I love the words in this song:) thanks for sharing it:)
