Author: Charles H. Gabriel Hymnal: Baptist Hymnal 2008 #237 (2008) Meter: 8.7.8.7 with refrain Hymnal Title: Baptist Hymnal 2008 First Line: I stand amazed in the presence Refrain First Line: How marvelous! how wonderful! Lyrics: 1 I stand amazed in the presence
Of Jesus the Nazarene,
And wonder how He could love me,
A sinner, condemned, unclean.
Chorus:
How marvelous!
How wonderful!
And my song shall ever be;
How marvelous!
How wonderful!
Is my Savior'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 griefs,
But sweat drops of blood for mine.[Chorus]
3 He took my sins and my sorrows,
He made them His very own.
He bore the burden to Calv'ry,
And suffered and died alone. [Chorus]
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. [Chorus]
