I am the worst of sinners
I am the worst of them all
I dig my heels in the sand
Only see my own plan
And pride leads me to build up my walls
I am the worst of sinners
I see the things the way that I want
Living in offense and greed
Childish in word and deed
Hoping that I won't get caught
I can't see the good in me
Or why the Lord puts up with me
When all that I do seems to fail
If I were God, I'd have grafted me out
But thanks be to Him, I am not
Christ speaks a different story over me
Forgiven, healed, ransomed, loved, and redeemed
The sting of my sin has been buried with Him
Never to rise up again
Christ speaks a different story over me
I was held captive
But He set me free
Immature though I am
God is the I Am
Whose love goes endlessly
Even in spite of me
I am the worst of sinners
Unworthy to lead any crowd
Sin crouches at my door
A wave crawling up the shore
I give it a place in my house
Without the Lord where would I be
Trapped in all my jealousy
In cycles of shame and regret
Led by selfish motives
Stepping over my own brother
Loving only for what I can get
Christ speaks a different story over me
Forgiven, healed, ransomed, loved, and redeemed
The sting of my sin has been buried with Him
Never to rise up again
Christ speaks a different story over me
I was held captive
But He set me free
Immature though I am
God is the I Am
Whose love goes endlessly
Even in spite of me
My measureless debt's been forgotten
By my Great Love who's begotten
A change in my heart
Deep love in my soul
Sight beyond what my storehouses hold
Now my whole world's been demolished
And I can see what I've forgotten
Billions of hearts who need grace from the Lord
Whose arms have room for us all
Christ speaks a different story over them
They are sinners, yet they're forgiven
Who am I to not extend
The grace that saved me from my sins
And called me from the grave I was in
Oh, Christ speaks a different story over us
Perfectly united, by His perfect blood
We can stand hand-in-hand
By the grace that pardons sin
For thanks be to God
Oh thanks be to God
Thanks be to God
He redeems even in spite of us
