Lyrics
FORGIVE THIS ONE
When He looked down from the cross
In the agony of His pain
He knew each on standing there
Who had mocked His holy name
But the eyes of His breaking heart
Saw far beyond the crowd that day
He saw the image of me
Needing to hear Him say
Chorus
Father forgive this one
Standing in the shadow
You've seen all he's done
And I want Him to know
I chose to die in His place
So he could live within My grace
Because You've forgiven him
This one can live
Second verse
When I look up at the cross
I see the image of You
Crying out Your last few words
And dying so you could prove
Though I can never live my life
Worthy of what You've done for me
I can carry out my days
In your grace of living free
Second chorus (lyric slightly different)
Father forgive this one
Standing in the shadow
You've seen all I've done
Still You want me to know
You chose to die in my place
So I can live within Your grace
Because You've forgiven me
This one can live
