I Stand Amaz'd in the Presence
"And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly: and his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground." - Luke 22:44
VERSE 1
I stand amaz'd in the presence
Of Jesus the Nazarene,
And wonder how He could love me,
A sinner, condemn'd, unclean.
CHORUS
How marvelous!
How wonderful!
And my song shall ever be;
How marvelous! How wonderful!
Is my Saviour's love for me!
VERSE 2
For me it was in the garden
He prayed "Not my will but Thine:"
He had no tears for his own griefs,
But sweat drops of blood for mine.
CHORUS
How marvelous!
How wonderful!
And my song shall ever be;
How marvelous! How wonderful!
Is my Saviour's love for me!
VERSE 3
In pity angels beheld Him,
And came from the world of light
To comfort Him in the sorrows
He bore for my soul that night.
CHORUS
How marvelous!
How wonderful!
And my song shall ever be;
How marvelous! How wonderful!
Is my Saviour's love for me!
VERSE 4
He took my sins and my sorrows,
He made them His very own;
He bore the burdens to Calvary,
And suffered, and died alone.
CHORUS
How marvelous!
How wonderful!
And my song shall ever be;
How marvelous! How wonderful!
Is my Saviour's love for me!
VERSE 5
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.
CHORUS
How marvelous!
How wonderful!
And my song shall ever be;
How marvelous! How wonderful!
Is my Saviour's love for me!
