The Gospel Truth
The hammer came down on nails he had earned
The thief on there dying, He said it's deserved
As darkness crept in Jesus turned to his side
And in that moment the thief saw the light
Oh the verdict was read: you're guilty he said
But the judge overruled and showed us all what mercy can do
The penalty's paid, No debt remains
The cross stands to prove there's pardon for you
And my friend that's the Gospel truth
Praise God, that's the Gospel truth
In the Heavenly throne room My trial began
The lambs book was open as I took the stand
The gavel rang out "defendant please rise"
The sentence was death, but the Lord gave me life
Oh the verdict was read: you're guilty he said
But the judge overruled and showed us all what mercy can do
The penalty's paid, No debt remains
The cross stands to prove there's pardon for you
And my friend that's the Gospel truth
Praise God, that's the Gospel truth
Far better than justice, too good to believe
We shout Hallelujah, the sinner walks free
Oh the verdict was read: you're guilty he said
But the judge overruled and showed us all what mercy can do
The penalty's paid, No debt remains
The cross stands to prove there's pardon for you
And my friend that's the gospel truth
Praise God, that's the gospel truth
Praise God, that's the gospel truth
The thief on there dying, He said it's deserved
As darkness crept in Jesus turned to his side
And in that moment the thief saw the light
Oh the verdict was read: you're guilty he said
But the judge overruled and showed us all what mercy can do
The penalty's paid, No debt remains
The cross stands to prove there's pardon for you
And my friend that's the Gospel truth
Praise God, that's the Gospel truth
In the Heavenly throne room My trial began
The lambs book was open as I took the stand
The gavel rang out "defendant please rise"
The sentence was death, but the Lord gave me life
Oh the verdict was read: you're guilty he said
But the judge overruled and showed us all what mercy can do
The penalty's paid, No debt remains
The cross stands to prove there's pardon for you
And my friend that's the Gospel truth
Praise God, that's the Gospel truth
Far better than justice, too good to believe
We shout Hallelujah, the sinner walks free
Oh the verdict was read: you're guilty he said
But the judge overruled and showed us all what mercy can do
The penalty's paid, No debt remains
The cross stands to prove there's pardon for you
And my friend that's the gospel truth
Praise God, that's the gospel truth
Praise God, that's the gospel truth
