VERSE 1
Holy Scripture tells the story of the Christ who came to save—
Light that shattered every darkness, shining strong and shining brave.
Came to give eternal life, and to death He bowed His head;
When His mission was completed, God the Father raised Him back.

CHORUS
There has never been a story with a love so strong and true—
One that reaches every rebel, makes the sinner born anew.
It is in the holy Gospel where forgiveness is proclaimed;
Where the old man is abandoned and a new man takes his name.
---
VERSE 2
On the cross His precious blood poured out the price that sets us free;
From His wounded, pierced side flowed the grace that rescued me.
Hands and feet were nailed in place—mercy lifted for all eyes;
All of this declares His kindness, all His goodness testified.

CHORUS
There has never been a story with a love so strong and true—
One that reaches every rebel, makes the sinner born anew.
It is in the holy Gospel where forgiveness is proclaimed;
Where the old man is abandoned and a new man takes his name.

VERSE 3
I will never tire of hearing all the wonders of my Lord;
I am living in salvation through this mighty, sacred word.
From the judgment I was freed, from the sentence and the pain;
By the Scriptures I am certain: Jesus Christ alone remains.

CHORUS
There has never been a story with a love so strong and true—
One that reaches every rebel, makes the sinner born anew.

Where the old man is abandoned and a new man takes his name.
