We were walking in darkness But there is a great light
A present state of wrongness Can be changed and made right
For we each have a problem That we never will solve
Stains we cannot remove Guilt we cannot absolve
There is no other answer There is no other way
That can solve our sin problem And can put it away
But there is a redeemer Who is faithful and true
He restores and forgives us And creates us anew
Yes there’s but one solution Who can make sinners whole
To remove the pollution In the depths of our soul
For we sin ‘cause we’re sinners, we’re sinners ‘cause we sin
But He breaks sin’s dominion As He’s living within
There is only one Savior There is only one Lamb
Only one sacrifice That attains as He stands
As he rose from
the tomb Victor over the fall
With a foot that was wounded He crushed the serpent’s skull
And death’s power was broken As for Sin he atones
Now through propitiation Our judge casts His last stone
Surely he bore our griefs And our sorrows and sins
As he took them all on Him And a new world begins
There is no other answer There is no other way
That can solve our sin problem And can put it away
Now there is a way forward A crossroads at the cross
A place of salvation Gain exchanged for His loss.
