Verse 1 From heaven’s courts of shining light, You left your Father’s side, To do his loving will on earth, In humble, lowly stride. The perfect image of our God, His wisdom, love, and might, You came to walk among mankind, A servant in the night. Chorus Ransom of love, one perfect life, Given so all might live. Obedient Son, you paid the price, Nothing more left to give. We bow our hearts before your stake, In thankful faith we stand. Through you we walk the narrow way, Led by your gentle hand. Verse 2 You healed the blind, you stilled the storm, You taught us how to pray. You showed your Father’s tender heart, The life-transforming way. Yet hated without cause by men, Despised and left alone, You bore reproach and cruel shame, To honor God’s great throne. Chorus Ransom of love, one perfect life, Given so all might live. Obedient Son, you paid the price, Nothing more left to give. We bow our hearts before your stake, In thankful faith we stand. Through you we walk the narrow way, Led by your gentle hand. Verse 3 Now raised to sit at God’s right hand, Exalted, crowned as King, You intercede for those who call, And to your Father cling. No other name can bring us peace, No path except through you, You lead us to Jehovah’s face, To love in spirit and truth. Bridge When guilt and fear would drown my heart, Your blood speaks louder still. You whisper, “Come and trust in me, Just do my Father’s will.” Final Chorus Ransom of love, one perfect life, Given so all might live. Obedient Son, you paid the price, Nothing more left to give. For all eternity we’ll praise The Lamb once slain for man, And with you bless Jehovah’s name, United in his plan.
