Intro

Verse 1

How deep the Father's love for us
How vast beyond all measure
That He should give His only Son
To make a wretch His treasure
How great the pain of searing loss
The Father turned His face away
As wounds which mar the chosen one
Bring many sons to glory

Interlude

Verse 2

Behold the man upon a cross
My sin upon His shoulders
Ashamed I hear my mocking voice
Call out among the scoffers
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

Interlude 2

It is finished oh
It is finished oh

Verse 3

I will not boast in anything
No gifts no power no wisdom
But I will boast in Jesus Christ
His death and resurrection
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

Verse Tag

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
Yes this I know with all my heart
His wounds have paid my ransom

How Deep The Father's Love For Us (Live) - In the Bible [Verses & Devotional]

The song “How Deep The Father’s Love For Us” by Austin Stone Worship is a beautiful reminder of the immense love that God has for us. The lyrics of the song remind us of the sacrifice that Jesus made for us on the cross. He took our sins upon Himself and died for us so that we could be saved. 

The Bible tells us in Romans 5:8 that “God demonstrates His own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” Jesus’ death on the cross was the ultimate demonstration of God’s love for us. He was willing to sacrifice His own Son for us, even though we were sinners. 

The song also reminds us that we can’t boast in anything but Jesus Christ. We can’t take credit for our own salvation, because it was only through Jesus’ death and resurrection that we can be saved. The Bible tells us in Ephesians 2:8-9 that “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast.” 

The song “How Deep The Father’s Love For Us” is a beautiful reminder of the immense love that God has for us. We can’t take credit for our own salvation, but we can be thankful for the sacrifice that Jesus made for us on the cross. Let us remember the great love that God has for us and give Him all the glory and praise.
