the law of sin – v5

without my Savior

without the sacrifice of Christ

I am bound, I am in chains,

I will never see Paradise;

the grave, damnation

my future, the price

this is what I face

I am bound for death,

following the flesh

eternal damnation;

that which I hate

from my hands,

from my lips;

I spit in Christ’s face

I have earned, my wages,

a righteous judgment

the sentence heaped upon me,

the Law of sin,

my Lord and Master

the grave, Hell

my reward

Without Jesus, my Savior

the sacrifice of Christ

I am bound, I am in chains,

I will never see Paradise;

the grave, damnation

my future, the price

at the end of this life
