Lyrics:
I was lost but then You came
You drew me from the pit I made
Suffocating in my pride
You paid the ransom for my life
Now standing with the Father
You stretch Your hands and say
That child's forgiven, and I have written
That sinner's name in my Book
Now when You see me and the stripes that scar me
Just know I bled to pay the debt.
That child's forgiven, that child's forgiven
Now when I stumble and I fall
And I trip into the devil's snares
He doesn't waste time at all
To say God's love won't prevail
But then Jesus comes beside me
He whispers in my ear
Child, you're forgiven, and I have written
Oh, your name in my Book
Now when you see me and the stripes that scar me
Just know I bled to pay your debt
You're forgiven, you're forgiven
Nothing can separate you from my love
Not height nor depth nor anything there is
As far as the east is from the west
So far have I saved you from your sins
You're forgiven, and He has written
Your name in His Book
Now when you see Him and the stripes that scar Him
Just know He bled to pay your debt
You're forgiven, You're forgiven
You're forgiven, and He has written
Your name in His Book
Now when you see Him and the stripes that scar Him
Just know He bled to pay your debt
You're forgiven, You're forgiven
