| No one asked you to go to the cross for me |
| But it is when I stand on one knee that I am lifted by your grace that is in me |
|
| No one asked you to suffer for me |
| But it is by your pain that I know the truth of your word |
|
| No one asked you to die for me |
| But it is by your love that I know to love |
|
| I asked that you live |
| And it is when you rose that I know that you know of me |
|
| Of all my transgressions the lowest is when I knew not of your love for me |
|
| That I could envy the power of the Lord |
| That I should be without his wisdom and his mercy |
|
| For it is through his wisdom that I know to love the Lord |
| And it is because of his mercy that I know that the Lord loves me |
|
| Forgive me Lord that I now know of you so that I may now be with you |
|
| By John |
