Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
God saw me found, while sinner still
He wore my wrath on Calvary's hill
The cost is life for all my debt
I was bought the day God bled
Once enemies, now heir of Christ
When mercy turned so jealous wild
And drowned my shame in forgetful seas
The wrath of God brought life to me
Glory be, Glory be
To the one who freed me from me
Then Jacob's God ran to my cry
And wrestled down all of my fight
And humbled all of my willful pride
This prodigal, now a grateful child
Glory be, Glory be
To the one who freed me from me
Oh praise the conquerer of my soul
The one who never let me go
My heart has found true love and home in the arms of God
Oh praise the conquerer of my soul
The one who never let me go
My heart has found true love and home in the arms of God
Glory be, Glory be
To the one who freed me from me from me
Glory be, Glory be
To the one who freed me from me from me
Halleluyah, Halleluyah
