How Deep The Fathers Love For Us

Phillips, Craig & Dean


Tom: G

    G                 Am    G  C
How deep the Father's love for us
    G               Em  D 
How vast beyond all measure
     G                 Am  G  C            
That He should give His only Son
    G                 D   G             
And make a wretch His treasure


[Verse 2]

    G                 Am   G   C                                    
How great the pain of searing loss
    G                Em   D                                     
The Father turns His face away
   G                    Am  G  C                                        
As wounds which mar the Chosen One
       G           D  G                                       
Bring many sons to glory


[Verse 3]

  G             Am   G   C                                  
Behold the Man upon the cross
    G           Em   D                                            
My sin upon His shoulders
   G              Am  G    C                                       
Ashamed I hear my mocking voice
      G             D  G                                       
Call out among the scoffers


[Verse 4]

   G               Am   G   C                                              
It was my sin that held Him there
  G             Em  D                                       
Until it was accomplished
     G               Am      G  C                                        
His dying breath has brought me life
   G               D  G                                           
I know that it is finished

[Verse 5]

   A                Bm  A  D                                    
I will not boast in anything
    A                 F#m  E              
No gifts, no power, no wisdom
    A               Bm  A   D                                          
But I will boast in Jesus Christ
    A              E  A                 
His death and resurrection


[Verse 6]

      A                Bm  A  D                                        
Why should I gain from His reward?
   A            F#m  E                                      
I cannot give an answer
    A                Bm  A   D                                   
But this I know with all my heart
    A                   E  A                                   
His wounds have paid my ransom [x2]
