judas

I met a preacher man from Galilee
Who opened up blind eyes
And made him see
He said come and follow me
I'll show you what life was meant to be

I said I'd never turn away
I said I'd never leave His side
All the days of my life
But I am weak
And I'm afraid
I traded my Lord for pocket change

Yeah maybe I'm like Judas
Maybe I'm that thief
Maybe I'm that sinner
That put you on that tree
Thirty pieces of silver
He ain't worse than me
Because he betrayed you for money
And I did it all for free

No I'm never gonna forget it
Forever I'm indebted to You
No I'm never gonna leave
This life the same

Lord, I'm here and I repent
So clean my heart and clean my hands
Oh Lord, my only hope
I'm a sinner and a broken man
By Your blood and by Your grace, I live and forget

I pierced Your hands
And I stabbed Your back
I went and turned away
From the only friend I had
For thirty pieces of silver
Life can't be that cheap
Even in my broken mess
A savior died for me

Maybe I'm like Judas
Maybe I'm that thief
Maybe I'm that sinner
That put you on that tree
For thirty pieces of silver
And I still can't believe
That God and all His mercy
Went and purchased me
