Not Guilty

I stand accused

There's a list a mile long

Of all my sins

Of everything that I've done wrong

I'm so ashamed

There's nowhere left for me to hide

This is the day

I must answer for my life

My fate is in the judge's hands

But then he turns to me and says

I know you

I love you

I gave my life

To save you

Love paid the price

For mercy

My verdict

Not guilty

How can it be

I can't begin to comprehend

What kind of grace

Would take the place for all my sin

I stand in awe

Now that I have been set free

And the tears well up

As I look at that cross

'Cause it should have been me

My fate was in the nail scarred hands

He stretched them out for me

And said

I know you

I love you

I gave my life

To save you

Love paid the price

For mercy

My verdict

Not guilty

I'm falling on my knees to thank you

With everything I am I'll praise you

So grateful for the words I heard

You say

I know you

I love you

I gave my life

I know you

I love you

I gave my life

Just to save you

Love paid the price

For mercy

My verdict is

Not guilty

Love paid the price for mercy

My verdict not guilty not guilty
