I Stand All Amazed
Written by Charles H. Gabriel B. August 18, 1856, Wilton, Iowa -
D. September 14, 1932, Hollywood, California
I stand all Amazed at the love Jesus offers me,
Confused at the grace that so full he proffers me.
I tremble to know that for me he was crucified,
That for me , a sinner, he suffered, he bled and died.
Refrain
Oh, it is wonderful, that he should care for me Enough to
die for me! Oh, it is wonderful, wonderful to me!
I marvel that he would descend from his throne divine,
To rescue a soul so rebellious and proud as mine.
That he should extend his great love unto such as I.
That he should extend his great love unto such as I.
Sufficient to own, to redeem, and to justify.
Refrain
Refrain
I think of his hand pierced and bleeding to pay the debt!
Such mercy, such love and devotion can I forget?
No, no, I will praise and adore at the mercy seat,
Until at the glorified throne I kneel at his feet.
Refrain

I love this hymn, thanks for the reminder!
This is one of my all time favorite hymns.
One can never ponder on this subject enough. I am very thankful for my Savior and the sacrifice he made for me.
Happy day to you,

This is one of my favorites! I too have my hymnal on my lap ready to share a hymn on this WHITE sabbath day. It just might be the same you shared:)
I have been so up lifted by humming the hymns and reflecting the meaning of the words. I truly stand all amazed at all the love HE continues to offer me.

I too love this hymn. One of my favorites. My second oldest daughter got married in the SD temple. It was lovely. Mimi
