Find the lyrics and story plus video performance of this wonderful hymn below.
And can it be that i should gain is a christian hymn written by charles wesley. How can it be that thou my god shouldst die for me. And can it be that i should gain an int rest in the savior s blood. This is not an emotional hymn.
Another good hymn is 296 which was written by charles wesley. In a later republication by the wesleys in 1780 the original fifth stanza was omitted beginning still the small inward voice i hear and this revision has been honored ever since. It is very elegant. Died he for me who caused his pain for me who him to death pursued.
This hymn is considered one of the best loved of wesley s six thousand hymns written in 1738 to celebrate wesley s conversion to christianity. It was published in john wesley s psalms and hymns in that same year with six stanzas. The first stanza says and can it be that i should gain an int rest in the savior s blood.
