I Stand All Amazed

This song has been updated from the previous version that I had on the website. The rhythm of this beautiful hymn has been set in triplet form to help emphasize the words. The chorus remains consistent throughout the song, and the final chorus adds to the refrain with an added "Oh it is wonderful". This added refrain has a striking harmony, which adds to the rejoicing of how wonderful it is, that the Savior suffered and died for even me. I hope you enjoy this arrangement.

Text and music by Charles H. Gabriel, 1856-1932

I stand all amazed at the love Jesus offers me,
Confused at the grace that so fully he profers me.
I tremble to know that for me he was crucified,
That for me, a sinner, he suffered, he bled and died.
Oh, it is wonderful that he should care for me Enough to die for me!
Oh, it is wonderful, wonderful to me!

I marvel that he would descend from his throne divine
To rescue a soul so rebellious and proud as mine,
That he should extend his great love unto such as I,
Sufficient to own, to redeem, and to justify.
Oh, it is wonderful that he should care for me Enough to die for me!
Oh, it is wonderful, wonderful to me!

I think of his hands pierced and bleeding to pay the debt!
Such mercy, such love, and devotion can I forget?
No, no I will praise and adore at the mercy seat,
Until at the glorified throne I kneel at his feet.
Oh, it is wonderful that he should care for me Enough to die for me!
Oh, it is wonderful,
(Oh, it is wonderful!
Oh, it is wonderful),
wonderful to me!
