Was placed upon the perfect Lamb

Who suffered, bled, and died?

Rejoice around Your throne

And calls the filthy clean?

A righteousness that proved to all

Your justice has been met

Through one atoning death

A love incomprehensible

Our minds could not conceive
 Am       G
A mercy that forgives my sin

Because of what You've done
