The One Who Is Unworthy
by The Perrys

Album: Almost Morning

A pair of dirty sandals
On the feet of someone special
Made their way down to Jordan's banks
The One who was arriving
Was here for His baptizing
This was not an ordinary day
John the Baptist saw Him coming
Stopped what he was doing
And with joy, started point to the crowd
Says, "Heaven's door has opened
Behold the Lamb of glory
We've never seen the face of God 'til now"

I'm unworthy to approach Him
Even with a true devotion
His purpose far it sees the calm and kind
He'll overcome temptation
And all the tricks of Satan
He'll never taste of sin like you and I
I tell you, I'm unable
To bow and loose His sandal
He and I are different, can't you see
One of us is holy
The other is unworthy
The one who is unworthy is me

Even though I've asked forgiveness
And of His grace, I am a witness
I still could never fathom who He is
Why He would bother coming
To a world so undeserving
And die upon a cross, it makes no sense
To say that I'm unworthy
Is the way that best describes me
No other word can tell my helpless state
Only by its crucifixion
And the precious grace He's given
Can I face my Savior unashamed

I'm unworthy to approach Him
Even with a true devotion
His purpose far it sees the calm and kind
He's overcome temptation
And all the tricks of Satan
He's never tasted sin like you and I
I tell you, I'm unable
To bow and loose His sandal
He and I are different, can't you see
One of us is holy
The other is unworthy
The one who is unworthy is me

One of us is holy
The other is unworthy
The one who is unworthy is me
