His Love for Me

David & Will
A slave I was, my master Sin —
Eternal death its wages be.
In bliss of ignorance I lived,
Not knowing hell awaited me.

The Lord, He knew me and my fate —
No man can pay my ransom fee.
He saw me in my wretched state;
He loved and gave His Son for me.

A fairer Judge has never been —
No bribe can ever void my fine.
An eye for eye, a tooth for tooth,
A life for life, His life for mine.

Into the world my King did come,
To live the life I should have lived
And die the death I would have died.
'Twas by His grace Life I received.

Three days He lay inside a tomb.
Three days Sin crowed its victory.
The third day Christ arose and claimed
The win for all eternity.

A slave no more, I've been redeemed.
My price is paid; I'm free from Sin.
My God I love. My Lord I serve.
His Life shines out from me within.
