Lyrics
You Came, You Saw © 2000 Laura McCandliss
VERSE 1
You spent a lifetime in my skin
To rescue me from sin.
You saw the world through my own eyes,
And as we spoke, You listened to the lies,
With my own ears,
You felt my fears-
You felt my pain- the lamb that was slain.
CHORUS 1
You came, You saw, hung from the cross.
And You died, to set us free-
For souls like me, You found the lost.
You came, You saw,
You came, You saw,
You came, You saw.
VERSE 2
In the same air You drew Your breath.
In the same flesh You spared my death.
How can I ever repay,
I can only follow You in all Your ways,
The price You paid, the sacrifice that You made
For me to be bought,
CHORUS 2
You came, You taught, You knew my thoughts, You knew my dreams,
And You loved faithfully.
So I could grow, so I would know how to live,
How to forgive,
I stand in awe,
You came, You saw
You came, You saw
You came, You saw.
