[Words and Music By Joel Houston]
(Verse 1)
You were near though I was distant
Desilusioned I was lost and insecure
Still mercy fought for my intention
You were waiting at the door, then I let You in
(Verse 2)
Trading Your life for my offenses
for my redemption
You carried all the blame breaking the curse
of our condition
perfection took our place
(Chorus 1)
When only love could make a way
You gave Your life In a beautiful exchange
(Chorus 2)
When only love could break these chains
You gave Your life In a beautiful exchange
(Verse 3)
My burden erased, my life forgiven
There is nothing that could take this love away
And my only desire, and my sold ambition
is to love You just the same
(Bridge)
Holy are You God, Holy is Your name
with everything i've got my heart will sing
How I love You
