You came for criminals and every Pharisee
You came for hypocrites, even one like me
You carried sin and shame, the guilt of every man
The weight of all I've done, nailed into Your hands
Oh Your love bled for me
Oh Your blood in crimson streams
Oh Your death is Hell's defeat
A Cross meant to kill is my victory
Oh Your amazing grace, I've seen and tasted it
It's running through my veins
I can't escape its grip
In You my soul is safe, You cover everything
Oh Your love bled for me
Oh Your blood in crimson streams
Oh Your death is Hell's defeat
A Cross meant to kill is my victory
Behold the Lamb of God
Who takes away our sin
Who takes away our sin
The Holy Lamb of God
Makes us alive again
Makes us alive again
Behold the Lamb of God
Who takes away our sin
Who takes away our sin
The Holy Lamb of God
Makes us alive again
Makes us alive again
Oh Your love bled for me
Oh Your blood in crimson streams
Oh Your death is Hell's defeat
A Cross meant to kill is my victory
A Cross meant to kill is my victory
