lyrics
VERSE 1
Lord what moved Your heart
To love lowly man
Before any star could
Herald Your praise
And why did You come
Abasing Yourself
Veiled in a robe
Of frail human clay
Why would You the pure
Give Your life for the vile
The innocent
Seeking the guilty
To be reconciled
CHORUS
I can’t comprehend
This fathomless love
I’m gripped and amazed
At what You have done
Why would the Adored
Become the despised
To bear all the furious wrath
That was mine
How awesome this mystery of
Your fathomless love for me
VERSE 2
Why would You adopt
And take as Your own
Those who had crushed
Your one precious Son
Why mercy and grace
Towards Your enemies
Your name they have cursed
And Your throne they have shunned
Oh how could You choose
To show kindness to these
The ones who would
Mock You and hate You
The ones just like me
