I WILL SING OF HIS GREAT LOVE
And glorify His Name;
For He has given all He could,
Dying for my shame.
On a cruel cross of pain,
His greatest pledge of love;
For no one else could take His place,
Righteous Lamb of God.
And I will glory in my Redeemer!
His blood availed, grace and mercy still prevails.
For I know He lives my Redeemer!
His sacrifice has paid sin’s price
And I will glory in His name!
For my sins He bled and died,
His Blood’s pure sacrifice,
And with His Body, Oh such love!
Broken and despised.
Hear Him, hear Him call my name,
As death draws by His side;
Yet when so many walk away,
In His cross I’ll hide.
When He comes to reign on High
And all His truths impart,
Then I shall bow before that Name,
Shepherd of my heart.
No more trials I must own,
Then no more griefs to bear;
And all temptations free at last
When I meet Him there.
