You left all of Your glory
When You traded Your crown for one with thorns
In a world of darkness light was born
Lord, You rewrote the story
When You rose from the dead and conquered the grave
I was lost I was broken
But You made a way
There's no greater love
And never will be
You laid down Your life
For someone like me
No matter how far I run
Your arms are wide enough
All of my stains
Are all washed away
No, there's no greater love
When I feel so unworthy
I remember the way You call me friend
Then I think of Your mercy
The scars on Your hands
There's no greater love
And never will be
You laid down Your life
For someone like me
No matter how far I run
Your arms are wide enough
All of my stains
Are all washed away
No, there's no greater love
There's no greater love
I know
It won't give up
It never fades
It overflows
It falls like rain
Leaves the 99 to save the one
So l sing Your praise
So l sing
There's no greater love
There's no greater love, I know
There's no greater love
And never will be
You laid down Your life
For someone like me
No matter how far I run
Your arms are wide enough
All of my stains
Are all washed away
No, there's no greater love
There's no greater love, I know
No, there's no greater love
There's no greater love, I know
