Lyrics
Love's Great Cost
by Barb Harmatys
Verse 1:
Jesus, You emptied out your life for me -
You chose to lay it down, Your deity.
Jesus, You chose to die for me -
To lay down Your very life for me.
To reconcile the world -
To reconcile this girl.
Verse 2:
You hung suspended on our cross of pain -
Your Father looked away from sin's deep stain.
Jesus, You chose to become our sin -
Fellowship, that was broken with Him.
The Father whom You loved -
Looked away as you were bleeding for us.
Verse 3:
O Jesus teach the world of this great love -
Love that has brought the Father back to us.
His throne room of grace -
Now open to seek His face.
To receive the pardon that we need -
Grace and mercy sets us free.
Jesus, You emptied out your life for us.
