How Deep the Father's Love for Us
By Stuart Townend
Capo 2nd fret
D Em7 D/F# G
How deep the Father's love for us
D/F# Bm Asus
How vast beyond all meas-ure
D Em D/F# G
That He should give His only Son
D/F# Asus D
To make a wretch His trea-sure
Em D/F# G
How great the pain of sear-ing loss
D/F# Bm Asus
The Father turns His face a-way
D Em D/F# G
As wounds which mar the Cho-sen One
D/F# Asus D
Bring many sons to glo-ry
D Em D/F# G
Be-hold the Man up-on a cross
D/F# Bm Asus
My sin upon His shoul-ders
D Em D/F# G
Ashamed I hear my mock-ing voice
D/F# Asus D
Call out among the scof-fers
Em D/F# G
It was my sin that held Him there
D/F# Bm Asus
Un-til it was ac-comp-lished
D Em D/F# G
His dying breath has brought me life
D/F# Asus D
I know that it is fin-ished
D Em D/F# G
I will not boast in an- y-thing
D/F# Bm Asus
No gifts, no power, no wis-dom
D Em D/F# G
But I will boast in Je- sus Christ
D/F# Asus D
His death and resur-rec-tion
Em D/F# G
Why should I gain from His re - ward?
D/F# Bm Asus
I cannot give an an-swer
D Em D/F# G
But this I know with all my heart
D/F# Asus D
His wounds have paid my ran-som
