This Fathomless Love
V1
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
CH
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
V2
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
O how could You choose to show kindness to these
The ones who would mock You and hate You
The ones just like me?
