Mars Hill — How Deep the Father’s Love

VERSE 1: 
     D                          G
 How deep the Father’s love for us 
     D                   A
 How vast beyond all mea-sure  
      D                       G
 That He should give his only Son 
    D                 A    D
 To make a wretch His trea-sure 
     D
 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. 
 
VERSE 2: 
    D                   G
 Be-hold the man upon a cross 
    D/F#               Asus2
 My sin upon his shoul-ders 
   D                        G 
 A-shamed I hear my mocking voice 
      F#m           Asus2   D 
 Call out among the scof-fers. 
 
 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. 
 
VERSE 3:  
   D                     Gsus2
 I will not boast in any-thing 
    D/F#                A6
 No gifts, no power, no wisdom 
     D                     Gsus2
 But I will boast in Jesus Christ 
     F#m             Asus2  D
 His death and resur-rec-tion 
 
 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
