Hymn using same tune:

#436

 

 1  Once I was dead in sin,

       And hope within me died;

    But now I'm dead to sin,

       With Christ I'm crucified.

 

And can it be that "He loved me,

   And gave Himself for me"?

 

 2  O height I cannot reach!

       O depth I cannot sound!

    O love, O boundless love,

       In my Redeemer found!

 

And can it be that "He loved me,

   And gave Himself for me"?

 

 3  I live — and yet not I,

       But Christ that lives in me,

    Who from the law of sin

       And death has made me free.

 

And can it be that "He loved me,

   And gave Himself for me"?
