I’ve always wanted just to feel all right,
Just to hear the words, “You are OK,”
Just to please somebody’s eyes
–Whether theirs or Yours or mine–
And worn myself out trying every day
Chorus:
When You were dying to tell me
That I am justified
You were dying to save me
From all my sin and pride
You were dying to save me from
The shame and fear inside
–How can you not forgive me
When that is why You died?
All my life I’ve tried to need You less,
To be better than others who need You more,
To take Your job and be
The one who rescues me
When it’s the lost sheep You came looking for
Chorus
