In the depth of my sin

Christ’s gift
made
in the depth of my sin
taking on my stain
choosing to submit
to God
Choosing to die
meeting me there
my hand on his head
the cup that he drank
that I may live

No Price for His Love

More than we can truly understand
that there is no price for his love
God freely giving
all that I ever need
even going to the cross for me
paying my cost with his life
the lamb, my brother
no price do I owe
but my humble praise
turning, conforming my life to him
in thanksgiving to my king
