How Wonderful How Marvellous (lyrics by Chris Tomlin) - several versions to listen to ... a bit of classic country, Welsh congregational, Jason Eaton, and this brass band!
I stand amazed in the presence
Of Jesus the Nazarene,
And wonder how He could love me,
A sinner, condemned, unclean.
Chorus:
O how marvelous! O how wonderful!
And my song shall ever be:
O how marvelous! O how wonderful!
Is my Savior's love for me!
He took my sins and my sorrows,
He made them His very own;
He bore the burden to Calvary,
And suffered and died alone.
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.
A few bonus tracks: Let's Go Down to the River to Pray, How Great is our God, I could sing of your love forever.
All very good and proper. However, I feel you just can't beat the Holy Week liturgies for 'atmosphere.
ReplyDeleteTonight, at SMAA for instance:
Mass of the Last Supper.
Foot-Washing (Choir singing the traditional 'New Commandment' and other chants.
Followed by the All Night watch at the altar of Repose.
