Verse 1:
     E                 Gbm   E  A        E               Dbm  B
How deep the Father's love for us, how vast beyond all measure
     E                  Gbm - E  A       E              B    E
That he should give his only son, to make a wretch his treasure
                      Gbm - E     A        E                 Dbm    B
How great the pain of searing loss, the Father turned his face away
    E                   Gbm - E  A          E           B   E
As wounds which mar the chosen one, bring many sons to glory
 
Verse 2:
     E         Gbm   E  A        E              Dbm   B
Behold the man upon a cross, my sin upon his shoulders
 E                  Gbm - E     A         E             B    E
Ashamed, I hear my mocking voice call out among the scoffers
                    Gbm   E     A    E             Dbm    B
It was my sin that held him there until it was accomplished
    E                    Gbm  E   A       E               B   E
His dying breath has brought me life; I know that it is finished
 
Verse 3:
 E                  Gbm E  A        E                 Dbm   B
I will not boast in anything: no gifts, no power, no wisdom
  E                  Gbm - E   A          E             B    E
But I will boast in Jesus Christ; his death and resurrection
                        Gbm  E  A      E             Dbm B
Why should I gain from his reward? I cannot give an answer
    E                 Gbm  E   A          E                 B   E
But this I know with all my heart: his wounds have paid my ransom
