The Good News

I was a dead man, laying in darkness
I was a helpless, sinful wretch
So double-minded, utterly blinded
But He awoke my heart and said
"My child, come alive right now"

This is the good news of God
Once I was dead, now I'm not
'Cause He paid my debt on that cross
I'm alive to proclaim
The good news of God

Now I am living, singing in freedom
'Cause I am no more bound by sin
Now I am breathing Your very life in
My God, You've made me born again
Beloved child, come alive right now

This is the good news of God
Once we were dead, now we're not
'Cause He paid our debt on that cross
We're alive to proclaim
The good news of God

He has heard all creation's groans
So He came down from His throne
And He endured, living perfectly
Without sin for you and me
On that cross, love so freely poured
Sing it out, let us praise the Lord
By His blood, He's redeemed our souls
Lift a shout 'til the whole world knows

This is the good news of God
Once we were dead, now we're not
'Cause He paid our debt on that cross
We're alive to proclaim His almighty Name
This is the good news of God
Once we were dead, now we're not
'Cause He paid our debt on that cross
We're alive to proclaim His almighty Name
We'll lift up our praise to the Savior who saves
This is the good news of God
