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

[Refrain:]
How marvelous, how wonderful!
and my song shall ever be:
How marvelous, how wonderful
is my Savior's love for me!

2 For me it was in the garden
he prayed: "Not my will, but thine."
He had no tears for his own griefs,
but sweat-drops of blood for mine. (Refrain)

3 He took my sins and my sorrows,
he made them his very own;
he bore the burden to Calvary,
and suffered, and died alone. (Refrain)

4 When with the ransomed in glory
his face I at last shall see,
'twill be my joy through the ages
to sing of his love for me. (Refrain)
