Man of no reputation
Man of sorrow and shame
Could I ever be like Him
How I long for the day
That He left His throne up in heaven
To wear a different kind of crown
And did He ever regret it
As the blood flowed down
Sweet salvation
Sweet salvation
Sweet salvation
Here I come with my burdens
And the weight of my sin
Calling out from the prison
That I let people put me in
Stepping into Your sunlight
I feel Your freedom on my face
I sing a national anthem
Amazing grace
Was blind but now I see
