You loved me,
When I was so unlovely,
You sought me
When I was lost;
You showed me
How much You really loved me,
When You bought me
At the highest cost
There's no greater love than this,
There's no greater love than this,
That a man would give his life for a friend;
There's no higher sacrifice
Than a man would give his life,
You have paid a precious price for me
You chose me,
When I was so unworthy
You cleansed me
With Your own blood;
You clothed me
With righteousness and mercy,
And You crowned me
With Your steadfast love
There's no greater love than this,
There's no greater love than this,
That a man would give his life for a friend;
There's no higher sacrifice
Than a man would give his life,
You have paid a precious price for me
