Amazing!
Lyrics & Music by Sam Powell © 2011
The beating of a baby’s heart on a sonogram display
Emotion in a work of art can take your breath away
Like colors in a sunset sky
And wings upon a butterfly
But nothing can compare to the love of the Father
The beauty in a cheetah’s stride
As she chases down her prey
To sit and watch the ocean tide recede and drift away
The eagle soaring high and free
Inspiring as they all may be
There’s nothing to compare with the love of Jesus
Just one word that I can find
Amazing, amazing
Grace & forgiveness
What else can you call it but
Amazing, amazing
What manner of love is this?
Take sinners like us, a Savior like Him
It seems like oil and water to me
Amazing love, how can it be?
Have you considered outer space
Distant stars and galaxies
Looked down upon a coral reef
Or up at redwood trees?
I can’t help thinking “what is man”
To figure in His master plan
Cause nothing we can do could ever earn this favor
Just one word comes to my mind
