The Steadfast Love of Christ (Live)

Once my heart was a prison, defiled and cold
Where sin and the enemy reigned
I was bound by the chains that enslaved my soul
No hint of repentance or shame

But then Jesus appeared like the morning sun
Defeating the shadows with light
And forgiveness flowed through His precious blood
Oh, the steadfast love of Christ

Though redeemed I still battle the lies within
That silently war in my soul
In my weakness I yield to the power of sin
And desperately cry out for hope

But then grace rushes in like a mighty flood
New strength to engage in the fight
And I taste the freedom the cross has won
Through the steadfast love of Christ

All the world is accursed and in sorrow still
As heartache and suffering remain
But the hope of creation will be fulfilled
Our Savior is coming to reign

I believe in the justice of God the Son
I know faith will turn into sight
Every tear stain dried, every wound undone
By the steadfast love of Christ

All of Heaven will quake when we see our King
The Lamb on the throne, lifted high
We'll behold in awe and forever sing
Of the steadfast love of Christ

Oh, the steadfast love of Christ
Oh, the steadfast love of Christ
