Thy Boundless Love

Representative Text

1 Behold the precious Lamb of God,
Who died upon the tree,
That guilty sinners, such as I,
Might thro’ His grace be free.

Refrain:
Thy boundless love I’ll sing,
Thy grace so full and free,
’Tis under Thy protecting wing,
My soul delights to be.

2 Behold the healing streams of grace,
That from His side did flow;
I plunged beneath the crimson flood,
That washes white as snow. [Refrain]

3 Behold the cross He bore for me,
Whereby He saved my soul;
His matchless grace shall be my theme,
While countless ages roll. [Refrain]
