Our hearts condemn us – v2

We falter, we are broken, shattered,
we sin against God, our fellow man,
we are humble, we are unworthy,
of the gift of God’s grace,
but that is the point…
 
Our hearts condemn us,
we recoil from our sin, our shame,
but Christ has redeemed us, freed,
from the verdict, the stain of our sin,
He has made us to rise with Him…
 
We too can mount up, we can rise,
on wings like eagles, we can climb,
we can soar because we are washed,
we are redeemed, we are made clean,
by the precious blood of Christ…
