Charles H. Gabriel, 1856-1932 [Key: Eb]
Verse 1
I stand amazed in the presence Of Jesus the Nazarene, And wonder how He could love me, A sinner, condemned, unclean.
Chorus
Oh, how marvelous! Oh, how wonderful! And my song shall ever be; Oh, how marvelous! Oh, how wonderful! Is my Savior’s love for me!
Verse 2
For me it was in the garden He prayed, “Not My will but Thine;” He had no tears for His own griefs, But sweat drops of blood for mine.
Chorus
Oh, how marvelous! Oh, how wonderful! And my song shall ever be; Oh, how marvelous! Oh, how wonderful! Is my Savior’s love for me!
Verse 3
In pity angels beheld Him, And came from the world of light To comfort Him in the sorrows He bore for my soul that night.
Chorus
Oh, how marvelous! Oh, how wonderful! And my song shall ever be; Oh, how marvelous! Oh, how wonderful! Is my Savior’s love for me!
Verse 4
He took my sins and my sorrows, He made them His very own; He bore the burden on Calv’ry, And suffered and died alone.
Chorus
Oh, how marvelous! Oh, how wonderful! And my song shall ever be; Oh, how marvelous! Oh, how wonderful! Is my Savior’s love for me!
Verse 5
When with the ransomed in glory His face I at last shall see, ‘Twill be my joy thro’ the ages To sing of His love for me.
Chorus
Oh, how marvelous! Oh, how wonderful! And my song shall ever be; Oh, how marvelous! Oh, how wonderful! Is my Savior’s love for me!
