Song Lyrics

---

Verse:
My sins are sharp and cold as steel,
Your hands are those that felt their bite.
The sorrow I felt, not what You’d feel,
my loneliest time seems so slight.

The world had turn its back on me.
The Father turned His back on You.
You bore my faults, I’m reborn free.
My chains and locks You’d undo.

Chorus:
Such a gift is so unfair,
this is the mark of mercy and grace.
While we sinned without a care,
You sought to defend our sad case.

It’s so unfair to gain Your place,
when all You gained we had earned.
For that reason we’ll see Your face.
You won’t give what we deserve.

Verse:
You knowing no sin, made sin for me,
I’m given Your righteousness.
My sins cast in deepest seas,
given Promise, I give my trust.

Truly grace is not fair,
it pays for sins it did not want.
Still Your grace would so dare,
this wretched life You have bought.

Bridge:
The brightest of me is darkest night,
and yet I know the brightest love.
The darkest of You is brightest light,
from Your dark death I’m borne above.

Repeat chorus
