Album: Make It Count
Ive always been the kind to do things on my own
I never needed any help to bring me up when I was low
Ive chased after money and almost fallen for fame
But I was standing in the valley when he whispered my name
He said follow and believe, come and find your rest in me
It was his love that compelled him to leave his throne on high
It was compassion for the rebel and the final sacrifice
It was mercy that saw beyond my sin to my need
And it was grace that saved a wretch like me
Weve stood on the mountain and weve drowned in the rain
But hes been there right beside me every step along the way
One drop of his goodness is deeper than the sea
So Ill swim in the ocean of my saviors heart for me
It was his love that compelled him to leave his throne on high
It was compassion for the rebel and the final sacrifice
It was mercy that saw beyond my sin to my need
And it was grace that saved a wretch like me
Oh, the love that drew salvations plan
Oh, the grace that brought it down to man
Oh, the mighty gulf that God did span
For you and me
It was his love that compelled him to leave his throne on high
It was compassion for the rebel and the final sacrifice
It was mercy that saw beyond my sin to my need
And it was grace that saved a wretch like me
