Come on get on up on your feet, come on!
It's time to worship!
You went to such great lengths just to take my place
You traded heaven's throne for amazing grace
You came, you bled, you sacrificed
You died, you rose, to give me life
I'm loved, I'm free, and I just can't believe
You keep showing me, things angels long to see
Things angels long to see
Who-oh-oah
Amazing grace, how can it be
Who-oh-oah
I once was blind but now I see
Things angels long to see
Things angels long to see
You showed me unfailing love I never knew exists
Replaced all my hopelesness with a reason to live
You came, you bled, you sacrificed
You died, you rose, to give me life
I'm loved, I'm free, and I just can't believe
You keep showing me, things angels long to see
Things angels long to see
Who-oh-oah
Amazing grace, how can it be
Who-oh-oah
I once was blind but now I see
Things angels long to see
Things angels long to see
The nails in your hads, the spear in your side
The reason you died was out of love for me
The nails in your hads, the spear in your side
The reason you died was out of love for me
The nails in your hads, the spear in your side
The reason you died was out of love for me
The nails in your hads, the spear in your side
The reason you died was out of love for me
The nails in your hads, the spear in your side
The reason you died was out of love for me
Out of love for me
Who-oh-oah
Amazing grace, how can it be
Who-oh-oah
I once was blind but now I see
Who-oh-oah
Amazing grace, how can it be
Who-oh-oah
I once was blind but now I see
Things angels long to see
I'm loved, I'm free, and I just can't believe
You keep showing me, things angels long to see
I'm loved, I'm free, and I just can't believe
You keep showing me, things angels long to see
I'm loved, I'm free, and I just can't believe
You keep showing me, things angels long to see
I'm loved, I'm free, and I just can't believe
You keep showing me, things angels long to see
Things angels long to see
Things angels long to see
