[Intro] The lie keeps talking like it knows my name But truth stood up when Jesus took my shame No borrowed crown, no verdict from the past Christ is my refuge; His word will last [Chorus] The lies in my head don’t get the final word Christ alone is Lord, Christ alone is Lord When the old voice says I’m too far gone Christ alone holds me, Christ alone Not my fear, not my failure, not the world’s control Jesus bought my life; He keeps my soul The lies in my head fall quiet when I know: Christ alone, Christ alone [Verse 1] I hear that old accusation dressed up as fact “You’ll never change; you always go back” It keeps a list like a judge in the hall But mercy met me before I could crawl The cross says paid; the empty grave says live I don’t earn a place—He chose to give No shame can outshout what His blood has done I’m held by the Father through the faithful Son When my thoughts run wild and the night feels long I open the Word, let it set me strong I’m not what I fear, or the worst I’ve been I’m a child brought home, made clean within [Chorus] The lies in my head don’t get the final word Christ alone is Lord, Christ alone is Lord When the old voice says I’m too far gone Christ alone holds me, Christ alone Not my fear, not my failure, not the world’s control Jesus bought my life; He keeps my soul The lies in my head fall quiet when I know: Christ alone, Christ alone [Verse 2] The crowd says, “Build your worth on applause” The mirror makes a courtroom out of every flaw But neither one gets to name what I am My life is hid in the hands of the Lamb Still, grace is no cover to cling to the chain He calls me to turn, and He teaches me change (quiet chuckle) A polished excuse with a Bible verse pinned? He sees the whole heart; let the truth come in Come as you are, but don’t make peace with the lie Confess what is crooked; let the old self die His kindness leads sinners to turn and believe There’s room at the cross; there is strength to receive [Bridge] Jesus, be louder than fear in my chest When I lose my way, lead me back to Your rest Not my record, not my power, not the praise of the crowd Christ alone is my hope; I will say it out loud [Verse 3 — faster pocket] Take every thought that says mercy is through Hold it beside what the Savior made true No condemnation for those who are found In Jesus, the lost have a home and a crown Put truth in my speech, put patience in stride Let kindness and courage walk close by my side When guilt starts rehearsing the old closing case I answer with Jesus, His pardon, His grace No neighbor’s my enemy, no sinner beyond The reach of the love that has called us His own I’ll walk in the light, let my choices agree With the One who has saved and is changing me The lies may return, but they don’t get the throne My heart and my future belong to Christ alone [Final Chorus] The lies in my head don’t get the final word Christ alone is Lord, Christ alone is Lord When the old voice says I’m too far gone Christ alone holds me, Christ alone Not my fear, not my failure, not the world’s control Jesus bought my life; He keeps my soul The lies in my head fall quiet when I know: Christ alone, Christ alone [Outro] When the lie says condemned, I remember the cross When the lie says forgotten, I know I am loved No claim over me can outlast what He’s done My hope, my salvation: Christ alone.
