Lyrics

(Oboe Introduction)

(Verse 1)
I thank you, Lord, for loving me
though I was stained with sin.
For you came and died upon a tree
that I may live again.
I thank you Lord for promising
a home in Heav'n above,
Where I'll see Your face and offer praise
For Your abiding love.

(Chorus 1)
You gave your life to ransom me,
To break sin's bond and set me free;
I'll never cease to sing Your praise
For all eternity.

(Verse 2)
I thank you, Lord, for giving me
The strength to live each day,
As I seek to live my life for You,
And walk the narrow Way.
Lord, when I fail, I know You're there:
You promise not to leave.
With Your guiding hand, once more I stand;
Your mercy I receive.

(Chorus 2)
Your love is all I'll ever need.
By grace alone my soul is free.
I'll praise you while on earth I live
And all eternity.

(Ending)
You gave your life to ransom me,
To break sin's bond and set me free;
I'll never cease to sing Your praise
For all eternity.
For all eternity!
