How great a God would come to earth, How great his word, a living hope
know sorrow, weakness, pain of heaven’s joy to come;
to live the perfect life for me for with the angels I shall bow
then die to bear my shame? in worship of God’s son:
How great a God could break the cords All glory to our risen King;
that bound me tight in sin the Lamb upon his throne!
then rise to reign eternally At last I see him face to face
so I might live through him? and hear him cry, “My own!”

How great his love - to bring me back administered by Jubilate Hymns Ltd
from all the wrongs I’ve done -
his victory, complete in me,
my rebel heart now won.
How great his strength to keep me safe
when I forget he’s there,
so faithful when I stray from him
and place my trust elsewhere.
How great his heart, so full of grace
to share himself with me
and pour upon my thirsty soul
his mercy deep and free.
