Song Lyrics

---

Lord, take me back to where it all began
And write it forever on my soul
I want to find again every thing that we had
And remember what I’ve always known
‘Cause I can feel so unloved / But how could I fail to see
A love that is so deep / It spans all eternity

How could I forget
The cross, the shame
The blood poured out
To cleanse my stains
How could I forget
The tears, the pain
The life laid down
That me You’d gain
Oh, worthy is the Lamb who was slain

You loved me enough to come down and die
How could I question Your love for me
When my heart is in darkness I will lift my eyes
To the truth that will set my soul free
Lord, turn all my thoughts to You / Lift me in Your loving arms
And help me find my way / Back to the proof of Your heart

How could I forget
The cross, the shame
The blood poured out
To cleanse my stains
How could I forget
The tears, the pain
The life laid down
That me You’d gain
Oh, worthy is the Lamb who was slain

You put Your love on display
It’s constant and firm to the end
A love that You have set on me
Oh, God, remind me once again
Everything I have to do, You’ve already done
And this war that I fight has already been won

How could I forget
The cross, the shame
The blood poured out
To cleanse my stains
How could I forget
The tears, the pain
The life laid down
That me You’d gain
Oh, worthy is the Lamb who was slain
