Here is another wonderful song by Nick Mott from his new Journey CD. - March 21, 2010
Unclean, Unclean! I've nothing to give,
To You, all is warped and defiled!
The best of my works, a filthy old rag,
My greatest, an offence to You.
But He came, He came, the One without sin,
Pure, spotless all holy and clean.
He never fell short of Your righteous desire,
Always pleased You and kept your commands.
He who had no sin became sin for me,
That I might become one righteous to God
And counted as one who is clean
Through His own death I am healed
That I might now live as one righteous for God
And offer a life that is clean
We've sinned, we've sinned, there's not even one
Who's known You or sought after You
The core of our being rebellious to You
Unable to do one thing good
But the Son, Your Son, committed no wrong
No deceit was found in His mouth
A perfect example of a life full of faith
Without blemish and never at fault
He who had no sin became sin for me,
That I might become one righteous to God
And counted as one who is clean
Through His own death I am healed
That I might now live as one righteous for God
And offer a life that is clean
(Solo)
But the Son, Your Son, committed no wrong
No deceit was found in His mouth
A perfect example of a life full of faith
Without blemish and never at fault
He who had no sin became sin for me,
That I might become one righteous to God
And counted as one who is clean
Through His own death I am healed
That I might now live as one righteous for God
And offer a life that is clean
