lyrics

Greatest Sacrifice

Verse 1
Who am I but merely Your creation
I gave up all I had for an imitation
The road I thought would lead me home
Just left me lost and all alone but You

Chorus
Yeshua You alone have sought me
Yeshua You alone have bought me
You chose the nails, a thorny crown
Spilled Your blood on the ground
Traded Your life with me in mind
You are the greatest sacrifice

Verse 2
Where to go except where You will lead me
What to say except what You speak through me
I tried so hard to make it on my own
You’re still waiting with open arms and You

Bridge
How deep is Your love for me
How high have You lifted me
How long have You waited for me
How wide are Your arms that embrace me
