Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

They surrounded me, stones in hand

My sin was great, but there stood a man

He turned, spoke a word, wrote in the sand

Daughter where are those who accuse

Neither do I condemn you 


Grace, Oh Grace is greater than all my sin

The cross, the cross is greater than where I've been

You call me holy, new, remade

I?m believing what You say


I am an outcast, liar and thief

But there?s a man hanging next to me

I see compassion and love in His eyes

?Lord remember me? is my cry


Grace, Oh Grace is greater than all my sin

The cross, the cross is greater than where I've been

You call me holy, new, remade

I?m believing what You say


On that blessed hill of Calvary

My saviour's blood was shed for me

All my sin he took away

And gave me righteousness in its place


Grace, Oh Grace is greater than all my sin

The cross, the cross is greater than where I've been

There is no stain that has remained

My savior's blood has made a way

You call me holy, new, remade

You call me holy, new, remade

I?m believing what You say
