I Stand Amazed in the Presence

Words and music by Charles Gabriel · 1905

Key of G · 80 BPM · 4/4 · Grace,Adoration · 1 John 3:1

Verse 1

I stand amazed in the presence of Jesus the Nazarene,
and wonder how he could love me, a sinner, condemned, unclean.

Chorus

How marvelous! How wonderful! And my song shall ever be:
how marvelous! How wonderful is my Savior's love for me!

Verse 2

For me it was in the garden He pray'd "Not my will, but Thine;"
He had no tears for His own griefs, But sweat drops of blood for mine.

Verse 3

In pity angels beheld Him, And came from the world of light
To comfort Him in the sorrows, He bore for my soul that night.

Verse 4

When with the ransomed in glory His face I at last shall see,
'Twill be my joy thro' the ages, To sing of His love for me.
