Verse 1
We have never seen althrough history that a man could save himself
Every work of man since the world began never kept one soul from Hell
But God looked down in grace and love and met our greatest need
By his own hand and his perfect plan we are free yes free indeed
Chorus
What we needed was a savior pure and sinless
Dying for the wrong we've done
What we needed was a holy sacrifice
God's only begotten son
When the world all around was bound for Hell
All earthly hope was lost
What we needed was the grace and mercy God provided on a rugged cross
Verse 2
Many men have tried to be satisfied by the things this world affords
They have placed their faith in another way and rejected Christ our Lord
But the Father longs to reveal to them what they needed all along
It is there to claim in Jesus' name at the cross sinstains is gone
Back to Chorus
