I give thanks to you, O Lord my God, with my whole heart,
and I will glorify your name forever.
Psalm 86:12
Taken from Gospel Primer, Poetic VersionBut wonders of wonders, so great to behold, My God chose to save mewith method so bold. What I could not render,God fully has done,And doing, He rendered itall through His Son.He sent Christ to dieon the cross for my sinTo suffer my anguish my pardon to win.Amazing it is, when I stop to regard,That God would consentto an anguish so hard,Surrend'ring His Sonunto mayhem and death,To torturous writhing'til His final breath. 'Why does God forsake Me?'alone Jesus cried;Yet God left Him hanginguntil He had died.That Jesus was willing His life to lay down,Be scourged and insulted and wear thorny crownFor one such as I who had spited God so,Amazes and blesses and makes me to knowThat greater a loveis no man than He,Who laid down His lifefor a sinner like me.
