How Deep The Father's Love For Us
On this glorious Good Friday, I find myself compelled to share one of my favorite songs by Stuart Townend. May you spend time focusing on HIM and HIS SACRIFICE as we go through the next few days coming up to Resurrection Sunday. Thank you God for loving me this much even though you knew I would despise you and reject you.
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 helf 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 Christ
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
