I have been waiting for someone like You
You have restored my countenance
I had always searched and seeked for someone like You
You have brought me into Your family
What have I done to receive a love like Yours?
I’ve worked hard for everything else but Your love is free
How could such a love be free?
The greatest treasure in all the world and You freely give it to us.
I’m astounded and amazed that You love us so
Because of You I didn’t get what I deserved
Instead I received what You wanted to give me from the beginning
Every chain was broken
Every sin was buried
Because You love
Someone like me
Even after we crucified You
You forgave us and died for us
Even after we rejected and despised You
You were not ashamed to call us Your own
Even after we ran away from You
You chased after us and showed how much You love us
Oh how much You love us
Oh how much You love us
Because of You I didn’t get what I deserved
Instead I received what You wanted to give me from the beginning
Every chain was broken
Every sin was buried
Because You love
Someone like me
I’ve searched my whole life for Someone like You
