[A] [D] Even though I wasn't there when the [G] Lord was crucified,
[A] still it [E] was [A] for me and [G] my sin that [D] He died.
And I am the reason for all His [G] pain and agony,
so really I'm the one who [D] nailed His hands and [G] feet to that [A] tree.
[D] And I'm the one who mocked [A] Him [G] and spit in His [A] face.
[G] [A] I'm the [B] one who [A] beat Him and [G] with my sins put Him to [D] shame.
I'm the one who placed a [G] crown of thorns on His head.
And though my sin cried, crucify [D] [G] Him, my sweet Jesus [A] said,
I will [D] forgive you.
[G] I want to live to thank You.
[A] I love You.
[G] I'll pay Your debt so You'll [D] be free.
[A] [D] And [G] buy You with my blood.
I'll wash all Your [D] sins away [G] and make You a [A] child [D] of God.
When I was chained [A] in my sin, [Dm] [G] I was lost and blind.
[A] I could not pay the debt I owed [G] and I was bound to [D] die.
I was just another [A] soul [G] on my way to hell,
doomed to burn [D] forever.
That's [G] what my story [A] did tell.
[B] But then [D] one day I met Jesus [A] [G] and invited Him in.
[A] I asked Him to save me.
[G] I was sorry [D] for my sin.
I was just a little child, [A] [G] but He could hear me pray.
And on that [D] day, my [G] dear Savior [A] did say,
I [D] forgive you.
[G] I've made your heart clean.
I [A] love you.
[G] I'll pay your debt and now [A] you're free.
[D] You're mine now.
[G] I bought you with my blood.
All your sins are [D] washed away [G] and you're [A] a child of [D] God.
And if you're here [Dm] today and [G] you have not been saved,
young [A] or old, it [B] doesn't [A] matter.
[G] He can save you [A] just the [B] same.
[D] Just bow your head and pray.
Ask [G] Him in your heart to stay.
Confess your sin [D] and He'll come [G] in.
Then you can hear [A] Him say,
I [D] forgive you.
[G] I've made your heart clean.
I [A] love you.
I'll pay [G] your debt and now you're [A] free.
[D] You're mine now.
[G] I bought you with my blood.
All your sins are [D]
washed away [G] and you're a [A] child [D] of God.
[G]
All your sins [D] are washed away [G] and you're a [A] [D] child of God.
