Wandering, bewildered by this wilderness of sin
Lost and lonely, there was only One who'd take me in
Days of sorrow, years of shame was all I had to give

Yet He died for me, O can it be
His blood has paid the price
Laid on the line His life for mine
Love's greatest sacrifice

I could spend eternity just trying to repay
And still I'd be indebted for the sacrifice He made
Heaps of silver, mounds of gold could never buy my peace

So He died for me, O can it be
His blood has paid the price
Laid on the line His life for mine
Love's greatest sacrifice

Now I want to live for Him who died for me that day
Pure devotion, life's ambition following His way
I would never dream of leaving Christ, my dearest Friend

Because He died for me, O now I see
His blood has paid the price
Laid on the line His life for mine
Love's greatest sacrifice
