Infinite, Deity, humbly enframed
In a mortal and breakable body You came
To rescue our souls from the depths they were in
Because of, in spite of, to cover my sin
Master and servant together in one
Come to redeem what our hearts had undone
Savior of all come to gather His kin
Because of, in spite of, to cover my sin
Holy, unbreakable, infinite God
Ever unchanging in all that You are
Light of the world and the sun and the stars
You are I am and I am because You are
Shepherd and pastor to wandering sheep
Gave up His life so our own we could keep
Soldier in battle for souls He might win
Because of, in spite of, to cover my sin
Holy, unbreakable, infinite God
Ever unchanging in all that You are
Light of the world and the sun and the stars
You are I am and I am because You are
Humbly forsaking His Heavenly seat
Beaten and bloodied and washing my feet
Opened our eyes to what love really means
The blood on my hands is what washes me clean
Holy, unbreakable, infinite God
Ever unchanging in all that You are
Light of the world and the sun and the stars
You are I am and I am because You are
