How Deep The Father’s Love For Us (Chords)

Posted by chris on

E              	      F#m  G#m A
How deep the Father's love for us
E/G#            C#m  B
How vast beyond all measure
E                 F#m G#m  A
That He would give His only Son
E/B               B   E
To make a wretch His treasure

E/G#      	      C#m B   A
How great the pain of searing loss
E/G#             C#m  B
The Father turns His face away
E	                F#m G#m A
As wounds which mar the chosen One
E/B          B  E
Bring many sons to glory

Behold the Man upon a cross
My guilt upon His shoulders
Ashamed, I hear my mocking voice
Call out among the scoffers

It was my sin that held 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 powr's, 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
