C. H. Gabriel (20/413) -- Hymns and Spiritual Songs

C. H. Gabriel 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! 2 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. 3 I think of His hands pierced and bleeding to pay that 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.
