When they laid my King to rest
It was my shame He wore to bed
And it's the only part of Him
The Father did not resurrect
Now in my Father's land
There are no lesser men
Nobody barely wins or only just gets in
'Cause Jesus never fell in love
With open eyes He walked directly to the cross
He knew exactly what I cost
and He still went.
Like a body, close-connected and known
So You've called us, and so we are
And like a child nurtured, protected, adored
Somehow You name us, and so we are
And like a bride, cherished at dawn and waited for
So intimate with every title that You love her for.
My God, You never fell in love
With open eyes, You chose to die upon the cross
You knew exactly what I cost
I was worthless, but you made me worth it
I was a slave content to beg beneath your table
But You took me in and made me a son.
When I finally arrive and my body glides me home
Jesus, who once bore my shame, adorned in majesty on His throne
I will stand and wearing His righteouness as my cloak
