I stand all amazed

[Helmut-WK]

I hope this is the right place to ask this question:

After trying to sing the song named in the title, with both of us not sure about the melody, I went to youtube to find a video which helps to teach that song. I was embarassed that many (the majority in my search results) are linked to Mormons. As far as I could look into history, it was not composed by a Mormon.

Has that song got some link to Mormonism (and how)? Or are Mormons (YSA, BCU choirs etc.) that much present on youtube?

EDIT: I know it is no modern P&W song, but I found no better forum than this.

Is this the song? ......If it is the name is I stand amazed, punch that in and you get something else besides Mormon stuff.

I Stand Amazed (How Marvelous)
Shane & Shane
I stand amazed in the presence
Of Jesus the Nazarene.
And wonder how He could love me,
A sinner condemned, unclean.
How marvelous, How wonderful
And my song will ever be
How marvelous, How wonderful
Is my Saviour's love for me.
He took my sins and my sorrows
He made them his very own
He bore the burden to Calvary
He suffered and bled for me.
How marvelous, How wonderful
And my song will ever be
How marvelous, How wonderful
Is my Saviour's love for me.
Forever I will sing Your praise
Jesus, Risen King
Oh my God I stand amazed that You loved me.
When with ransomed in glory
His face I at last shall see
Twill be joy…

No, this is another song.

An alternative Title of the song I mean is "Oh, It Is Wonderful". See hymnary.org for the text.

Try this one, I'm not sure if this guy is Mormon or not.

Well, I do not just search for a non-Mormon version (I've already seen the video you posted). It is that it took some time to find one which is like yours (no overt sign like "Latter Saints" or so), and I ask myself why?

Your video has a little, rather technical fault: the microphone was placed in a way that the leader (pastor) is heard a bit ahead of the congregation. They should have places the mics at the rear

Sorry, I was unaware you were looking for a sound perfect version, I was under the impression you wanted to hear it in order for you to sing it yourself.

Just trying to help.

Oh, I'm not looking or a version, I want to know about this apparent "Mormon connection". Just biased search results, or what happened?

Thank you that you tried to help.
