such love

Who am I to say where the world is

I only know the price of my own sin

I only know the sorrow

of the places I have been

but I'm giving up that life

surrendering to my all in all

I'm leaving conflict and strife

I'm giving Jesus my life

I don't know what the world has done

or where her sins have lead

I don't know what originates 

the saddened throng upon their beds

I only know the wages

of my own sin

I only know what it cost Him

when my Saviour hung and bled for me

I'll never fully comprehend

the fact that such love could be given

to a fallen world of men

there may be sorrow 

there may be locusts 

there may be strangers stopping in

but I only desire to share the love of Him

who has paid for all my sins
