Forgiveness
by Ben S Dixon

Album: Oh Propitiation

Spoken Intro
I've done too much
I've seen too much
I'm a murderer, a liar
An adulterer at heart

No son, 'Come 'to Me all 'you who are weary
And heavy laden 'and I will give you rest
Take My yoke upon you and learn of Me
For I am gentle and humble of heart
And you will find rest for your soul
For My yoke is easy and My burden is light
Son don't you see that all have fallen short
Of My glory
Confess your sin and I am faithful and just
To forgive you of all unrighteousness

Verse 1
Forgiveness
Come to me all you tired
And I will give you rest
Forgiveness
Come all you weary receive this rest

The Son did not come
To save the righteous
But call every lost
From sin to repentance

This is what grace is
It cuts through the vastness
Of what we've done
His love it overcomes
This is what grace is
It cuts through the vastness
Of what we've done
His love it overcomes

There is not one thing that you've done
That hasn't been paid for by the blood
By the blood


Verse 2
We are flawed, sin has robbed
Our lives of the joy that was meant for us
Deceived and tricked, the fog was thick
A vial that covered the consequence
Of Sin

He pieces back the torn up souls
He picks up the lowly
The broken He holds
Unworthy are we, restoring is He
We've broken His law
Still the Son sets us free indeed

I come to You
You first came to me
I long for You
You first longed for me

Chorus
Where forgiveness was found
Where my sin was laid bare (laid bare)
Where my past bound
My very future rewritten (rewritten)
The day appointed by God
The day He freed all of man (the day he freed mankind)
Come all you broken
Taste this forgiveness
My God extends forgiveness
Forgiveness

Verse 3
Egregious disgust
Taken to the cross
Our rags oh so filthy
He bore them for us
We cry in our shame
Oh God come please save
Helpless we are unless You destroy these chains

He pieces back the torn up souls
He picks up the lowly
The broken He holds
Unworthy are we, restoring is He
We've broken His law
Still the Son sets us free indeed

I come to You
You first came to me
I long for You
You first longed for me

Chorus
Where forgiveness was found
Where my sin was laid bare
Where my past bound
My very future rewritten
The day appointed by God
The day He freed all of man
Come all you broken
Taste this forgiveness
My God extends forgiveness

Outro
This is what grace is
It cuts through the vastness
Of what we've done
His love it overcomes
This is what grace is
It cuts through the vastness
Of what we've done
His love it overcomes
