A Beautiful Exchange

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

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

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

Holy are you god
Holy is your name
With everything I’ve got
My heart will sing how I love you
