Verse 1) I stood condemned beneath the weight Of every sin and every shame No righteous deed could clear my name No sacrifice could break my chains Then mercy stepped into my night The spotless Lamb, the sacrifice And through His blood the war was done The Father welcomed home His son (Pre-Chorus) Not by works Not by law But by the cross I stand restored (Chorus) Now I have peace with God Through Jesus Christ my Lord Grace like a river opened wide Where wrath once roared And though this world still breaks my heart His love will not depart I was dead but now I live Because of what He did (Verse 2) We rejoice inside the pain Cause suffering is not in vain The fire shapes a stronger faith And hope that time cannot erase The Spirit pours His love inside A holy flame that never dies While we were weak and full of sin That’s when the Savior entered in (Bridge) One man brought the curse and fall Death spread its shadow over all But one Man obeyed unto the grave And now His righteousness can save Where sin increased, grace overflowed Mercy crushed the power of death below Adam failed, but Christ prevailed And now the gates of hell are sealed (Final Chorus) Now I have peace with God Through Jesus Christ my Lord No condemnation stands for those His blood restored And if He loved me at my worst He’ll keep me to the end The second Adam made a way For rebels to come in (Outro) Grace reigns now Through righteousness And Jesus wears The victor’s crown
