I stand amazed Lord
At all You’ve done
Forsaking royalty
Became a Son
To bring the Father’s redeeming hand
And heal our souls as we behold the Man
Behold the Man
Great God and incarnate
Behold the Man
The sacrificed Lamb
Lord You’re omnipotent
King of the ages
Behold the Man
The Great I Am
We lift our eyes Lord
To meet Your gaze
Such comfort there
Our fears erased
We reach to take from
Your wounded hand
The keys of victory
