Deeper than the ocean and wider than the sea,
Is the grace of the Savior for sinners like me;
Sent from the Father and it thrills my soul,
Just to feel and to know
That His blood makes me whole.
2
Higher than the mountains and brighter than the sun,
It was offered at Calvary for everyone;
Greatest of treasures and it's mine today,
Though my sins were as scarlet,
He has washed them away.
Chorus:
His grace reaches me
And 'twill last thru eternity;
Now I'm under His control
And I'm happy in my soul,
Just to know that His grace reaches me.
Music & Lyrics: Jewell M. Whitey Gleason, 1964

Here's another video in which the tenors sing the lead (usually sung by sopranos). I actually like this arrangement better.
