Lyrics
Why do I cherish this Jesus
In a world that's mocking His name?
Why would I risk persecution?
I'll tell you why today.
My sin, my sin He forgave.
The mountainous debt He erased.
He spoke, I'm free, I'm healed, I'm clean.
My sin, my sin He forgave.
My hands, in spite of their toilin',
Could not erase the shame.
But Jesus took on my burden
And washed all my guilt away. (Oh!)
My sin, my sin He forgave.
The mountainous debt He erased.
He spoke, I'm free, I'm healed, I'm clean.
My sin, my sin He forgave.
He is a fountain of goodness.
He is a river of grace.
He's undeniably merciful
And I'll never ever be the same. (Oh!)
Behold the Lamb of Salvation,
The remedy for every hurt.
He carries us all on His shoulders
And bears the whole weight of the world.
And bears the whole weight of the world.
Come on an' help me pastor.
Grace, grace, (God's grace)
God's grace, (there's nothin' like it)
Grace that will pardon (yes He will)
and cleanse within
How bout a little help from my momma? Come on now
Grace, grace, (oh yeah)
God's grace, (my God's grace)
Grace (grace) that is greater (it's greater)
than all, all my sin! Yeah!
My sin, my sin (my sin He forgave)
He forgave. (He forgave!)
The mountainous debt He erased. (He erased!)
He spoke, I'm free, I'm healed, I'm clean.
My sin, my sin He forgave.
My sin, my sin (my sin He forgave)
He forgave. (Oh!)
The (it was a) mountainous (mountain of) debt He erased. (He erased!)
He spoke, I'm free, I'm healed, I'm clean.
My sin, (my sin)
my sin He forgave. (My sin He forgave.)
He spoke,
(I remember when He spoke my name)
I'm free, I'm healed, (I'm healed)
I'm clean (I believe).
