I cannot find the words to say,
What Jesus means to me.
Or the awe that fills my heart,
When I ponder Calvary.
The perfect, sinless Son of God,
Came to earth to ransom me.
He took the punishment I deserved,
So my soul could be set free.
He faced ridicule and judgment,
And suffered cruel death,
Knowing separation from the Father,
Before His final breath.
He descended into hell,
Claiming life and death’s keys.
And rose again to life,
In triumphant victory.
He stands now and offers,
Full salvation from our sins,
And His resurrection life,
To all who trust and yield to Him.
For those whom He has ransomed,
Belongs the joy of being free,
To know, to love, to serve our God,
As His, eternally.
I cannot find the words to say,
What Jesus means to me.
Or the awe that fills my heart,
When I ponder Calvary.
