And can it be that I should gain
An int’rest in the Savior’s blood?
Died He for me, who caused His pain?
For me, who Him to death pursued?
Amazing love! how can it be
That Thou, my God, shouldst die for me?

’Tis mystery all! The Immortal dies!
Who can explore His strange design?
In vain the firstborn seraph tries
To sound the depths of love Divine!
’Tis mercy all! let earth adore,
Let angel minds inquire no more.

He left His Father’s throne above,
So free, so infinite His grace;
Emptied Himself of all but love,
And bled for Adam’s helpless race:
’Tis mercy all, immense and free;
For, O my God, it found out me.
’Tis mercy all, immense and free;
For, O my God, it found out me.

Long my imprisoned spirit lay
Fast bound in sin and nature’s night;
Thine eye diffused a quickening ray,
I woke, the dungeon flamed with light;
My chains fell off, my heart was free,
I rose, went forth, and followed Thee.
My chains fell off, my heart was free,
I rose, went forth, and followed Thee.

My chains fell off, my heart was free,
I rose, went forth, and followed Thee.

No condemnation now I dread;
Jesus, and all in Him, is mine!
Alive in Him, my living Head,
And clothed in righteousness Divine,
Bold I approach the eternal throne,
And claim the crown, through Christ my own.
Bold I approach the eternal throne,
And claim the crown, through Christ my own.

Today is New Year's eve 2014. There could be no better time to reflect on God's AMAZING LOVE. Reflecting on His mercy and grace on me from the beginning of the year to the end of the year 2014, the Holy Spirit dropped this song into my heart. Jesus Christ is indeed LORD. If it has not been for the mercy of the Lord I would have been long consumed but His compassion faileth not. Great is His faithfulness. Lord Jesus I thank You for saving me by Your precious blood and sparing my life to see another year.

Its all true, praise to the Father, praise to the Son and praise to the Holy Spirit, three in one!

Today is my birthday (39yrs) I am happy and resting in God's saving Grace! As a missionary to the Indians in the Amazon, all alone a few months ago, I played this hymn on my harmonica till through tears I could play no more. Oh that this Amazing Love be known by those precious souls too!
