Hymns, I Stand All Amazed, no. 193
1. I stand all amazed at the love Jesus offers me,
Confused at the grace that so fully he proffers me.
I tremble to know that for me he was crucified,
That for me, a sinner, he suffered, he bled and died.
[Chorus]
Oh, it is wonderful that he should care for me
Enough to die for me!
Oh, it is wonderful, wonderful to me!
2. I marvel that he would descend from his throne divine
To rescue a soul so rebellious and proud as mine,
That he should extend his great love unto such as I,
Sufficient to own, to redeem, and to justify.
3. I think of his hands pierced and bleeding to pay the debt!
Such mercy, such love and devotion can I forget?
No, no, I will praise and adore at the mercy seat,
Until at the glorified throne I kneel at his feet.
Text and music: Charles H. Gabriel, 1856–1932
I’ve recently written and recorded a song on this topic called “That Rock Is Gonna Roll”. It can be heard at http://www.myspace.com/emmettgrayson. We are still looking for the right artist for a record release, but this “demo” you’ll hear is very goof. The Resurrection is the whole cornerstone of our faith and we want that message to be more widely heard.
