Beautiful Exchange

(album: A Beautiful Exchange - 2010)

You were near though I was distant
Disillusioned I was lost and insecure
Still mercy fought for my attention
You were waiting at the door.
Then I let you in

Trading your life for my offenses
For my redemption
You carried all the blame
breaking the curse of our condition
Perfection took our place

When only love could make a way
You gave your life in a beautiful exchange

When only love could break these chains
You gave your life in a beautiful exchange

My burden erased, my life forgiven
There is nothing that could take this love away
And my only desire, and my sole ambition
Is to love you just the same

Holy are you god, holy is your name
With everything I've got my heart will sing
How I love you
