You Call Me Justified Songtext

You Call Me Justified

You left Your honor and treasures in glory
Took on the frailty of man
You wrote Yourself into our hopeless story
You had a rescue plan

The King of Heaven bringing our salvation
Breathing Your life into our death
Our sin was calling for our condemnation
It came down on You instead

I stand amazed at Your grace, oh
That You would take my place, oh
You died up on that tree
You took the nails for me
My debt of sin was paid, oh
Forgave my shameful ways, oh
My rightful death You died
You call me justified


You made Your dwelling with the weak and wounded
Shining Your light into the dark
You came to seek and save the lost and broken
Compassion filled Your heart

Every sin washed away
All our guilt and our shame
Every chain, every stain
Gone
Every sin washed away
All our guilt, all our shame
Every chain, every stain
Gone

I stand amazed at Your grace, oh
That You would take my place, oh
You died up on that tree

I stand amazed at Your grace, oh
That You would take my place, oh
You died up on that tree
You took the nails for me
My debt of sin was paid, oh
Forgave my shameful ways, oh
The law was satisfied, Your love was glorified


My rightful death You died
You call me justified
