Listen to this powerful rendition of the hymn ‘How Deep The Father’s Love For Us.’
‘How deep the Father’s love for us, how vast beyond all measure,
That He should give His only Son to make a wretch His treasure.
How great the pain of searing loss, the Father turns His face away
As wounds which mar the chosen One bring many sons to glory.’
What a beautiful rendition of this lovely hymn. The music starts off with a french horn playing, then a clarinet and piano join in. Next, the voices follow, and they sound just heavenly.

The hymn ‘How Deep The Father’s Love For Us’ was written in 1995 by Stuart Townend, and it became an instant classic. The song is now sung in churches all over the world, and Stuart has shared about his experience with writing it.
“I really wanted to set out to write a hymn. I was feeling there were lots of songs around, but there wasn’t a lot of content in the songs, and I really wanted to write something that was more hymn-like,” he said. “I was finding in my own worship leading, I was more and more going back to the hymns to introduce content, and I was thinking, ‘Why is it that we don’t have songs that are full of poetic, powerful language these days?’ So I kind of set out to do that.”
We hope that you enjoyed listening to this wonderful rendition of ‘How Deep The Father’s Love For Us.’
