1.
How deep the Father’s love for us, how vast beyond all measure, That He should give His only Son to make a wretch His treasure. How great the pain of searing loss, the Father turns His face away, As wounds which mar the Chosen One bring many sons to glory. Behold the man upon a cross, my sin upon His shoulders; Ashamed, I hear my mocking voice call out among the scoffers. It was my sin that held Him there until it was accomplished; His dying breath has brought me life—I know that it is finished. I will not boast in anything, no gifts, no pow’r, no wisdom; But I will boast in Jesus Christ, His death and resurrection. Why should I gain from His reward? I cannot give an answer, But this I know with all my heart, His wounds have paid my ransom.
2.
Jesus, lover of my soul, let me to Thy bosom fly, While the nearer waters roll, while the tempest still is high. Hide me O my Savior, hide, ‘til the storm is past. Safe into the haven guide, receive my soul at last. Other refuge have I none, hangs my helpless soul on Thee. Leave, ah, leave me not alone, still support and comfort me! All my trust on Thee is stayed, help from Thee I bring. Cover my defenseless head with the shadow of Thy wing. Plenteous grace with Thee is found, grace to cover all my sin. Let the healing streams abound, make and keep me pure within. Thou of life the fountain art, let me take of Thee. Spring Thou up within my heart, to all eternity.
3.
Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His saints Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His saints I love the Lord, He heard my cry, He has inclined His ear to me. How shall I repay my God, For all the good He has done for me. I will lift up the cup of salvation. And call upon the Name of the Lord. I will fulfill my vows to the Lord, In the presence of His people. O Lord I am Your servant, The child of Your handmaid. O Lord, I am Your servant, You have freed me from my bonds.
4.
Savior, I come, quiet my soul Remember Redemption's hill Where Your blood was spilled For my ransom. Everything I once held dear, I count it all as loss. Lead me to the cross Where Your love poured out. Bring me to my knees;
Lord I lay me down. Rid me of my sin; I belong to You.
Oh lead me, lead me to the cross. You were as I, tempted and tried, human. The word became flesh, Bore my sin and death; Now You're risen. Everything I once held dear, I count it all as loss. Bridge:
To Your heart, To Your heart, Lead me to Your heart. Lead me to Your heart.
5.
Sanctus 02:26
Holy, holy, holy Lord. God of power and might. Heaven and earth are full of Your glory. Hosanna! Hosanna! Hosanna in the highest! Blessed is He who comes, in the name of the Lord. Hosanna in the highest.
6.
My soul, thou art immerged in sin So deep that none can trace; Look to the ransom God decreed To clear the guilty race. Had I the guilt, of all the world, He’s able to forgive. Why should I fear? The debt is paid. If only I believe. The atonement once made on the tree Can balance many more, Than all the sins of Adam’s race, If numbered o’er and o’er. He paid the mighty sum and died, For sinners yet unborn; From men, the works of his own hands, He suffered shame and scorn.
7.
Come, Thou Fount of every blessing, tune my heart to sing Thy grace;
 Streams of mercy, never ceasing, call for songs of loudest praise.
 Teach me some melodious sonnet, sung by flaming tongues above. 
Praise His Name, I'm fixed upon it, Name of God’s redeeming love.

 Here I raise my Ebenezer; hither by Thy help I've come;
 And I hope by Thy good pleasure, safely to arrive at home.
 Jesus sought me when a stranger, wandering from the fold of God; He, to rescue me from danger, bought me with His precious blood. 
O to grace how great a debtor, daily I'm constrained to be!
 Let Thy goodness, like a fetter, bind my wandering heart to Thee. 
Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it, prone to leave the God I love;
 Here's my heart, O take and seal it, seal it for Thy courts above. Here’s my heart, O take and seal it, seal it for Thy courts above.
8.
Out of the depths I cry, Lord, hear my helpless sigh, Attend my plea for mercy. If you marked iniquities No one could stand with Thee. But you forgive and are to be feared. I wait for the Lord; My soul waits. I hope in his Word; My soul waits. More than the watchmen wait for the dawn; wait for the dawn. Put all your hope in the Lord, His love and mercy are sure; He will redeem his own from all their sin.
9.
O precious sight, my Savior stands, Dying for me with outstretched hands. O precious sight, I love to gaze, Remembering salvation’s day, Remembering salvation’s day. Though my eyes linger on this scene, May passing time and years not steal The pow’r with which it impacts me, The freshness of its mystery, The freshness of its mystery. May I never lose the wonder, The wonder of the cross. May I see it like the first time, Standing as a sinner lost, Undone by mercy and left speechless, Watching wide-eyed at the cost. May I never lose the wonder, The wonder of the cross. Behold the God-Man crucified, The perfect, sinless sacrifice. As blood ran down those nails and wood, History was split in two. Yes, history was split in two. Behold the empty wooden tree, His body gone, alive and free. We sing with everlasting joy, For sin and death have been destroyed. Yes, sin and death have been destroyed. May I never lose the wonder, The wonder of the cross. May I see it like the first time, Standing as a sinner lost, Undone by mercy and left speechless, Watching wide-eyed at the cost. May I never lose the wonder, The wonder of the cross.
10.
Our Father in Heaven Hallowed be Your name Your kingdom come, Your will be done On earth as it is in heaven Give us today our daily bread Forgive our sins as we forgive The ones who sin against us And lead us not into temptation But deliver us from evil For thine is the kingdom, the power, and the glory For-ever, Amen, Amen, Amen.
