Lyrics
Verse 1
Our life began like any other man, held beneath a mother's loving gaze
And somewhere between now and then
I lost the man I could have been
Took ev'rything that wasn't mine to take, but love believes that it is not too late
Verse 2
Only one of us deserves this cross, our suffering that belong to me
And deep within this man I hang beside is the place where shame and grace collide
And it's beautiful agony that believes it's not too late for me
Chorus 1
This is how love wins ev'ry single time, and climbing high upon a tree
Where someone else should die, this is how love heals the deepest part of you
Letting Himself bleed into the middle of your wounds, this is how love says
Standing at the door, you don't have to be who you've been before
Silenced by His voice, death can't speak again, this is how love wins
Verse 3
Did you see this moment from the start
That we would drink this cup of suffering
I wonder did we ever meet, childhood games and dusty streets
Verse 4
For all my many sorrows and regrets
Nothing could compare to just this one
That in the presence of my King I cannot fall upon my knees
I cannot carry You up to Your throne
You instead will carry me back home
Bridge
What can wash away my sin
Nothing but the blood, nothing but the blood
What can make me whole again
Nothing but the blood, nothing but the blood
Chorus 2
'Cause this is what love says standing at the door
You don't have to be who you've been before
Silenced by Hisvoice death can't speak again, this is how love wins...
