This is an arrangement of Stuart Townend’s wonderful song that we’ve been doing for a number of years. Kimberly wrote the added chorus on this one. It was so fun to finally record it!

LYRICS
How Deep the Father’s Love for Us
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.
o, how deep this love!
o, how deep his love for us.
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.
o, how deep this love!
o, how deep his love for us.
I will not boast in anything,
no gifts, no power, 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.
o, how deep this love!
o, how deep this love!
o, how deep this love!
o, how deep his love for us.
