1 From the splendid courts of heaven,
Jesus saw my misery;
Thus He took my death upon Him
And gave all His life to me.
In the cross of Christ I glory;
It was there my sin was tried.
He declared my soul not guilty
By the grace His wound provide.

Chorus:
Grace amazing! Grace sustaining!
Grace unveiling Christ above.
Grace astounding! Grace abounding!
Grace surrounding me in love.
Grace surrounding me in love.

2 In the bitter wake of failure,
Bound by guilt I cannot stand,
Though unworthy, I find favor
As I view His nail-scarred hands.
In the cross of Christ I glory,
For His blood remains my plea;
By His all-forgiving mercy
He gives grace relentlessly. - Chorus

3 When Almighty God feels distant,
Far beyond my hurting heart,
There is healing in His silence,
For he's near me in the dark.
In the cross of Christ I glory;
He endured my blackest night,
Yet today His grave is empty;
I find grace in risen light. - Chorus
