- 1I stand amazed in the presenceOf Jesus the Nazarene,And wonder how He could love me,A sinner, condemn'd, unclean.How marvelous!how wonderful!And my song shall ever be:How marvelous!how wonderful!Is my Savior's love for me!
- 2For me it was in the gardenHe pray'd "Not my will, but Thine;"He had no tears for His own griefs,But sweat drops of blood for mine.How marvelous!how wonderful!And my song shall ever be:How marvelous!how wonderful!Is my Savior's love for me!
- 3In pity angels beheld Him,And came from the world of lightTo comfort Him in the sorrows,He bore for my soul that night.How marvelous!how wonderful!And my song shall ever be:How marvelous!how wonderful!Is my Savior's love for me!
- 4When with the ransomed in gloryHis face I at last shall see,'Twill be my joy thro' the ages,To sing of His love for me.How marvelous!how wonderful!And my song shall ever be:How marvelous!how wonderful!Is my Savior's love for me!
