(1 John 3:1)
How vast beyond all measure
(2 Cor. 9:15)
That He should give His only Son
(John 3:16-17)
To make a wretch His treasure
(Deut. 7:6)
How great the pain of searing loss,
The Father turns His face away
(Matt. 27:46)
As wounds which mar the chosen One,
(Is. 53:5)
Bring many sons to glory
(Rev. 21:2-4)
Behold the Man upon a cross,
My sin upon His shoulders
(1 John 2:2)
Ashamed I hear my mocking voice,
Call out among the scoffers
(Luke 23:35-36)
It was my sin that held Him there
Until it was accomplished
(Col. 2:14)
His dying breath has brought me life
I know that it is finished
(John 19:30)
I will not boast in anything
No gifts, no power, no wisdom
(Prov. 21:30)
But I will boast in Jesus Christ
His death and resurrection
(Gal. 6:14)
I cannot give an answer
(Job 13:15)
But this I know with all my heart
His wounds have paid my ransom
(1 Cor. 15:10; 1 Tim. 1:15-17)
