A Beautiful Exchange
Joel Houston / Words
You were near though I was distant
Desilusioned I was lost and insecure
Still mercy faught for my intention
You were waiting at the door, then I let You in
Trading Your life for my offenses
for my redemption
You carried all the blame breaking the curse
of our condition
Perfection took our place
When only love could make a way
You gave Your life In a beautiful exchange
When only love could break these chains
You gave Your life In a beautiful exchange
My burden erased, my life forgiven
There is nothing that could take this love away
And my only desire, and my sole ambition
is to love You just the same
Holy are You God, Holy is Your name
With everything I've got my heart will sing
How I love You
