Lyrics

Chorus

O, love beyond human expression, Compassion so boundless and free; Jesus proved His great wealth of affection, When His body was broken for me.

Verse 1

Looking back thru the years I can see my dear Lord, As they nailed Him that day to the tree; For the love that He bore me His life blood He poured, When His body was broken for me.

 

 

Verse 2

For my sins and transgressions the dear Savior died On the cross, died in great agony; Nails thru hands and thru feet and the spear thru His side, When His body was broken for me.

 

 

Verse 3

The sun withdrew in sorrow behind a dark veil, Thus refusing the Lord’s death to see; And the earth tried by quaking His foes to assail, When His body was broken for me.

 

 

Verse 4

Yes, forever and ever His great love was proved, When He suffered on dark Calvary; And the curse of the law was forever removed, When His body was broken for me.
