I Stand Amazed in the Presence

I stand amazed in the presence 
of Jesus the Nazarene,
and wonder how he could love me,
a sinner, condemned, unclean.
Refrain:
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.
(Refrain)
He took my sins and my sorrows, 
he made them his very own;
he bore the burden to Calvary,
and suffered and died alone.
(Refrain)
When with the ransomed in glory 
his face I at last shall see,
'twill be my joy through the ages
to sing of his love for me.
(Refrain)
