Lord I come

Lord I thank you

For your love

For this grace divine

Love and mercy

Undeserving

You gave it all

The greatest sacrifice


You were wounded

For my sin

And You were bruised

For all my shame

You were broken

For my healing

Only by the cross

I'm saved


You're the mender of the broken

To every outcast

A friend and comforter


I come boldly to your presence

Lord I bow before your throne

You're my healer

My redeemer

You're my hope, my life, my all


You hear the cry of the broken

You hear the cry of the broken

You hear the cry of the broken


You answer the cry of the broken

You answer the cry of the broken

You answer the cry of the broken
