And Can It Be That Christian Song in English

And can it be that I should gain
An interest in the Saviourโ€™s blood?
Died He for me, who caused His pain?
For me, who Him to death pursued?
Amazing love! how can it be
That Thou, my God, shouldst die for me?

โ€˜This mystery all! The Immortal dies:
Who can explore His strange design?
In vain the first-born seraph tries
To sound the depths of love divine!
โ€˜This mercy all! let earth adore,
Let angel minds inquire no more.

He left His Fatherโ€™s throne above,
So free, so infinite His grace;
Emptied Himself of all but love,
And bled for Adamโ€™s helpless race.
โ€˜This mercy all, immense and free;
For, O my God, it found out me.

Long my imprisoned spirit lay
Fast bound in sin and natureโ€™s night;
Thine eye diffused a quickening ray,
I woke, the dungeon flamed with light;
My chains fell off, my heart was free;
I rose, went forth, and followed Thee.

No condemnation now I dread;
Jesus, and all in Him, is mine!
Alive in Him, my living Head,
And clothed in righteousness divine,
Bold I approach the eternal throne,
And claim the crown, through Christ my own
