Because of Love

You left your father's throne
You made my guilt your own
And in my place, condemned Alone you stood
You bled for Adam's race
So infinite your grace
You sealed my pardon with your precious blood

What is this love
Deep as the sea
Reached to the depths
And rescued me
God took my place
Gave me his name
Broke every chain now
Oh I am free Because of love
Because of Love

My shackled spirit lay
In chains until the day
Your light burst in At last, my heart was free
As soon as you came near
You banished every fear
I'll follow lord Until your face I see

What is this love
Deep as the sea
Reached to the depths
And rescued me
God took my place
Gave me his name
Broke every chain now
Oh I am free Because of love
Because of Love

Return my soul to rest
You are forever blessed
You stand upon the grace Of Christ alone
Because the Maker died
And rose again alive
Now I belong to him He is my own

What is this love
Deep as the sea
Reached to the depths
And rescued me
God took my place
Gave me his name
Broke every chain now
Oh I am free Because of love
Because of Love
Because of Love
Because of Love
