Redeeming Love, Amazing Grace

"Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God. Not only so but we rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And hope does not dissapoint us, because God has poured out His love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom He has given to us. You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly. Very rarely will any one die for a righteous man, though for a good man someone might possibly dare to die. But God demonstrates His own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us."
Romans 5:1-8
I love to look up to the heavens
and see Your glorious light shine down
I love to look out at the ocean
and see Your beauty all around
How could I ever grasp Your glory?
How could I ever see Your face?
I'm so in awe of You, my Jesus
Redeeming Love, Amazing Grace
I love to hold a newborn baby
So small, so innocent, so new
I love to hear a child's laughter
The true joy that's ringing through

How could I ever grasp Your glory?
How could I ever see Your face?
I'm so in awe of You, my Jesus
Redeeming Love, Amazing Grace
I love to open up the Bible
Read the words of life and truth
I love to worship with the Body
Voices blend in praises just for You

How could I ever grasp Your glory?
How could I ever see Your face?
I'm so in awe of You, my Jesus
Redeeming Love, Amazing Grace
Your gifts of love are plenty
Your joy you truly give
And though we don't deserve them
They still pour down that we might live.
How could I ever grasp Your glory?
How could I ever see Your face?
I'm so in awe of You, my Jesus
Redeeming Love, Amazing Grace.
