20. I stand amazed in the presence | Hymns

1. I stand amazed in the presence
Of Jesus the Nazarene,
And wonder how He could love me,
A sinner, condemned, unclean.

Chorus:
How marvellous! How wonderful!
And my song shall ever be:
How marvellous! How wonderful!
Is my Saviour’s love for me!

2. For me it was in the garden
He prayed: “Not my will, but Thine;”
He had no tears for His own grief,
But sweat-drops of blood for mine.

3. He took my sins and my sorrows,
He made them His very own;
He bore the burden to Calvary,
And suffered, and died alone.

4. When with the ransomed in glory
His face I at last shall see,
Twill be my joy through the ages
To sing of His love for me.
