[Verse 1]
    D                 G
How deep the Father’s love for us,
    D                  A
How vast beyond all measure,
     D                       G
That He should give His only Son
   D                 A   D
To make a wretch His treasure.
    D                         G
How great the pain of searing loss
    D                      A
The Father turns His face away,
   D                           G
As wounds which mar the Chosen One
      D            A  D
Bring many sons to glory.

[Verse 2]
D                     G
Behold the man upon a cross,
   D                 A
My sin upon His shoulders;
   D                       G
Ashamed, I hear my mocking voice
     D             A   D
Call out among the scoffers.
   D                        G
It was my sin that held Him there
  D                A
Until it was accomplished;
    D                           G
His dying breath has brought me life
  D               A  D
I know that it is finished.

[Verse 3]
  D                    G
I will not boast in anything,
   D                   Bm A
No gifts, no power, no wisdom;
    D                     G
But I will boast in Jesus Christ,
    D         A     D
His death and resurrection.
    D                        G
Why should I gain from His reward?
  D              Bm A
I cannot give an answer;
    D                       G
But this I know with all my heart
    D                   A D
His wounds have paid my ransom.
 
[Bridge 1]
    G                A
How deep my sin, yet deeper still
    D/F#               Bm
The love of Christ for me
     Em                  A/C#
That he would live, that he would die
    D/F#               G
And leave the grave empty
    G                A
How deep my sin, yet deeper still
    D/F#               Bm
The love of Christ for me
     Em          Em/D    A/C#
That he would live, that he would die
    D/F#               G
And leave the grave empty
 
[Bridge 2]
 G/B              A/C#
Ascended high, He is alive
   D           D/F# G
He will return again
    G/B            A/C#
The risen son, the lamb of God
    D          D/F# G
Who takes away my   sin
 
[Verse 4]
    D                 Em   D/F# G
How deep the Father’s love for  us,
    D               Bm A
How vast beyond all measure,
     D                  Em D/F# G
That He should give His on-ly   Son
   D                 A   D
To make a wretch His treasure.
              How deep the Father′s love for us,
How vast beyond all measure,
That He should give His only Son
To make a wretch His treasure.

How great the pain of searing loss
The Father turns His face away,
As wounds which mar the Chosen One
Bring many sons to glory.

Behold the man upon a cross,
My sin upon His shoulders
Ashamed, I hear my mocking voice
Call out among the scoffers.

It was my sin that held Him there
Until it was accomplished
His dying breath has brought me life
I know that it is finished.

I will not boast in anything,
No gifts, no power, no wisdom
But I will boast in Jesus Christ,
His death and resurrection.

Why should I gain from His reward?
I cannot give an answer
But this I know with all my heart
His wounds have paid my ransom.

How deep my sin, yet deeper still
The love of Christ for me
That he would live, that he would die
And leave the grave empty
How deep my sin, yet deeper still
The love of Christ for me
That he would live, that he would die
And leave the grave empty

Ascended high, He is alive
He will return again
The risen son, the lamb of God
Who takes away my sin

How deep the Father's love for us,
How vast beyond all measure,
That He should give His only Son
To make a wretch His treasure.
