I’VE BEEN JUSTIFIED, reconciled to God
From the death I died, I’m raised to life in You
I’m being sanctified, purified within
I’m standing on these truths
I will sing of the love of Calvary!
A song from deep within to thank You
I will sing of Your blood that flowed for me
Now all I have within is Yours
You were crucified, laid inside a tomb
Through Your sacrifice, my freedom’s in Your wounds
Now You’re glorified, raised to life by God
I’m standing on these truths
Simon Brading
