[Verse 1]
In the garden where the shadows
Fell so deep,
A lonely watch the Savior
Had to keep.
He saw the cup,
The weight of every sin
The battle raging deep
Within His skin.
He knew the cost,
The price that must be paid,
Yet in the dust,
His holy life He laid.
[Verse 2]
The crown of thorns
Was pressed upon His brow,
The king of kings,
Before the mockers now.
With every stripe,
A crimson river flowed,
To pay the debt that
Every spirit owed.
He carried wood, a heavy,
Rugged beam,
To pull us back from death’s
Eternal dream.
[Chorus]
I didn’t deserve so much
This grace so free,
That You would bleed
And give it all for me.
The precious blood
The sacrifice divine
To wash away a heart
As dark as mine.
Oh, lamb of God
Your mercy is a flood
I’m ransomed
By the power of Your blood.
[Verse 3]
Upon the hill
Beneath a darkened sky
The Lord of Life
Was lifted up to die.
"Forgive them, Father"
Was His dying plea
As He unlocked the chains
And set us free.
The veil was torn
The way was opened wide
Because the Son of Glory
Bled and died.
[Chorus]
I didn’t deserve so much
This grace so free,
That You would bleed
And give it all for me.
The precious blood
The sacrifice divine
To wash away a heart
As dark as mine.
Oh, lamb of God
Your mercy is a flood
I’m ransomed
By the power of Your blood.

[Pre Chorus]
The grave is empty
The stone is rolled away
The debt is cancelled
There's nothing left to pay.
From every drop
That fell upon the ground
A brand-new life
And healing can be found.
(The grave is empty
The stone is rolled away
The debt is cancelled
There's nothing left to pay.
From every drop
That fell upon the ground
A brand-new life
And healing can be found.)
The grave is empty
The stone is rolled away
The debt is cancelled
There's nothing left to pay.
From every drop
That fell upon the ground
A brand-new life
(And healing can be found.)
And healing can be found
[Final Chorus]
(I didn’t deserve so much)
(This grace so free)
That You would bleed
And give it all for me.
(The precious blood)
(The sacrifice divine)
To wash away a heart
As dark as mine.
(Oh, lamb of God)
(Your mercy is a flood)
I’m ransomed
By the power of Your blood
(I didn’t deserve so much)
(This grace so free)
That You would bleed
And give it all for me.
(The precious blood)
(The sacrifice divine)
To wash away a heart
As dark as mine.
(Oh, lamb of God)
(Your mercy is a flood)
I’m ransomed
By the power of Your blood
I didn’t deserve so much
This love so deep
A promise kept that only
You could keep.
The crimson stain has turned
To purest white,
I’m walking now
Within Your holy light.
Oh, lamb of God
Your mercy is a flood,
I’m ransomed by the power
Of Your blood
(I’m ransomed by the power
Of Your blood)
I’m ransomed by the power
Of Your blood.
