The Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir - I'm Amazed Lyrics

“I’m Amazed” centers on wonder at God’s love, care, and forgiveness. Its brief lines move from personal astonishment to the basis of pardon: the precious blood through which sin is washed away. The repeated phrase “I’m amazed” gives the song the character of a testimony, while the recurring declaration that every sin is washed away keeps grace rather than human merit at the center. The language is simple, but its repetition reinforces gratitude and assurance.

The imagery closely reflects New Testament teaching about cleansing and redemption through Christ’s blood. First John 1:7 speaks of Jesus’ blood cleansing from all sin, and Ephesians 1:7 connects his blood with redemption and forgiveness. The song does not explore those teachings in detail; instead, it responds to them with awe. Its emphasis rests on the contrast between human sin and divine mercy, presenting pardon as a gift that leads naturally to thankful worship.
