I Stand All Amazed


I stand all amazed at the love Jesus offers me,
Confused at the grace that so fully he proffers me.
I tremble to know that for me he was crucified,
That for me, a sinner, he suffered, he bled and died.

Oh, it is wonderful that he should care for me
Enough to die for me!
Oh, it is wonderful, wonderful to me!

 I marvel that he would descend from his throne divine
To rescue a soul so rebellious and proud as mine,
That he should extend his great love unto such as I,
Sufficient to own, to redeem, and to justify.

 I think of his hands pierced and bleeding to pay the debt!
Such mercy, such love and devotion can I forget?
No, no, I will praise and adore at the mercy seat,
Until at the glorified throne I kneel at his feet.


I would like to add my testimony to that of this hymn (Hymns of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, 193). I am SO AMAZED at the love my Savior continually offers me. I KNOW that He died for us and that He lives for us today. I am so grateful for His love and strength and support that I receive every single day. I know that as we turn to the Savior we can all experience that comfort that comes from knowing the love He has for you and from knowing all He has done for you.
