Once I was dead in sin,
And hope within me died:
But now I’m dead to sin
With Jesus crucified.
And can it be that “He love me,
And gave Himself for me”?
And can it be that “He love me,
And gave Himself for me”?
O height I cannot reach!
O depth I cannot sound!
O love, O boundless love,
In my Redeemer found!
And can it be that “He love me,
And gave Himself for me”?
And can it be that “He love me,
And gave Himself for me”?
O cold, ungrateful heart,
That can from Jesus turn,
When living fires of love
Should on His altar burn.
And can it be that “He love me,
And gave Himself for me”?
And can it be that “He love me,
And gave Himself for me”?
I live—and yet not I,
But Christ that lives in me,
Who from the law of sin
And death hath made me free.
And can it be that “He love me,
And gave Himself for me”?
And can it be that “He love me,
And gave Himself for me”?
