"How deep the Father's love for us,
How vast beyond all measure
That He should give His only Son
To make a wretch His treasure
How great the pain of searing loss,
The Father turns His face away
As wounds which mar the chosen One,
Bring many sons to glory
Behold the Man upon a cross,
My sin upon His shoulders
Ashamed I hear my mocking voice,
Call out among the scoffers
It was my sin that held Him there
Until it was accomplished
His dying breath has brought me life
I know that it is finished
I will not boast in anything
No gifts, no power, no wisdom
But I will boast in Jesus Christ
His death and resurrection
Why should I gain from His reward?
I cannot give an answer
But this I know with all my heart
His wounds have paid my ransom"

"O God have mercy, reveal to me my sin,
The guilt the shame the darkness, innate within
The blood of Jesus washes and makes me clean
Condemned now I’m pardoned, once bound now I’m free, now I’m free
To the God of victory All glory be to One Who’s conquered all
Every tongue will sing To the Risen King oh the wonder of it all
Just to think that You love me a wretch like me
Aloud I will rejoice! Aloud I will rejoice!
Aloud I will rejoice
O Father of my spirit, O King of all my days
Lead me to repentance, By Your amazing grace
O may my sin be bitter, so Christ will be sweet
I trust in your promise, life eternally, life eternally
Sing it loud, shout it out, rejoice, rejoice
Jesus, is King, victorious!"
~Michael Bleecker & Patricia Ryan Clark
"You are stronger
You are stronger
Sin is broken
You have saved me
It is written
Christ is risen
Jesus, You are Lord of all"
~Hillsong
