The passion of our Savior
And the mercy of our God
The cross that leaves no question
Of the measure of His love
Our chains are gone and our debt is paid
The cross has overthrown the grave
For Jesus' blood that sets us free
Means death to death and life for me
The innocent judged guilty
While the guilty one walks free
And death would be His portion
And our portion liberty
Our chains are gone, our debt is paid
The cross has overthrown the grave
For Jesus' blood that sets us free
Means death to death and life for me
I give my whole life
To honor this love
By the lamb who was slain
I'm forgiven
The sinner's Savior
Crown Him forever
For the Lamb who was slain
He is risen
I give my whole life
To honor this love
By the lamb who was slain
I'm forgiven
The sinner's Savior
Crown Him forever
For the Lamb who was slain
He is risen
I give my whole life
To honor this love
By the lamb who was slain
I'm forgiven
The sinner's Savior
Crown Him forever
For the Lamb who was slain
He is risen
Our chains are gone, our debt is paid
The cross has overthrown the grave
For Jesus' blood that sets us free
Means death to death and life for me
Means death to death and life for me
