I was your enemy
But You the friend who paid my debt for me
O how wondrous is Your cross
How amazing is Your grace
You bore my sin
I am welcomed in
O sweet exchange
So I give my life to You
And I will live to bring You praise
You felt the wrath
Gave yourself in love
In my place
In my place
Calvary
I cannot understand this mystery
The spotless son of man is sacrificed
To pay the price for me
Ever since,
Part of my substitute
You died my death
So that you might impute your righteousness
To all who will believe
You are the holy one
The fathers only son
Final breath
You took my condemnation down to death
Now by the power of your risen life
I stand here justified
