The sin that promised joy and life Had led me to the grave.
I had no hope that You would own A rebel to Your will.
And if You had not loved me first I would refuse You still.
You looked upon my helpless state And led me to the cross.
And I beheld God’s love displayed You suffered in my place
You bore the wrath reserved for me Now all I know is grace.
Hallelujah! Jesus is my life
The strength to follow Your commands Could never come from me.
Oh Father, use my ransomed life In any way You choose.
And let my song forever be My only boast is You.
