Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Deeper than the nails driven into his hands
Is the love of a father who gives his only son
Deeper than the thorns pressing into his bros
Is the love of a son who dies for everyone
Love so amazing
Deep deep love
Love so devine
Deep deep love
Love never failing to hear my call
Demands my soul, my life, my all
Deeper than the spear percing into his side
Is the love of God who takes away my sin
Deeper than the pain of the mobs biter words
Is the love of the savior who only says forgive
Love so amazing
Deep deep love
Love so devine
Deep deep love
Love never failing to hear my call




Demands my soul, my life, my all
Love so amazing demands my soul, my life, my all
