There’s a mercy in remembering my sin
There's a great gift in well placed shame
It reminds me of what was placed on Him
Who bore the penalty
The judgment due to me
That He took for the sake of His name
There’s a blessing in those memories
A reminder of Grace undeserved
The remembrance drives me to my knees
The unmerited favor
Bestowed by my Savior
That was poured out on me, unreserved
Forgiven and free
Saved for eternity
My substitute suffered all loss
For He rose from the grave
His people to save
I’m redeemed by the blood of the cross
Now infinite mercies I ponder
Now in this world, I am ill at ease
I am Transformed by infinite wonder
Drawn by God's grace
To seek Jesus’ face
I'm undone as I fall on my knees
Forgiven and free
Saved for eternity
My substitute suffered all loss
For he rose from the grave
His people to save
I’m redeemed by the blood of the cross
