I remember way back then
When I first heard the Gospel news.
I just couldn’t believe it.
How could it be true?
That You saw me at my worst,
And I didn’t believe.
But when I was at my worst,
You died for me.
What I learn about You
With You up on that cross,
Is the length You go to save
The sinner and the lost,
And the length You prove Your love –
No matter what the cost.
The fact You rose again
Proves You are God’s only Son.
You’re alive to walk with me
Until my days are done.
Even to this very day.
For what I think, say, or do.
When I look at the cross,
It should have been me, not You.
But it had to be You
For You were the spotless Lamb.
So, I declare my eternal trust
In the Son of Man.
All praise and glory
To the Great I am.
