Who could crucify a King
Who could hurt the hands that heal
What could motivate such things
Love has done it
But how’d this mercy come to me
And blood become my covering
I do not deserve these things
Love has done it
(So) I lift the God whose love delivered me
I magnify Christ the coming King
I glorify the Lord who lifted me
With His great love
Who cast my accuser down
And trampled on my enemy
Ransacked hell and took its keys
Love has done it
Oh oh I lift the God whose love delivered me
I magnify the Christ of the redeemed
I glorify the God who rescued me
With His great love
Arise and shine rest Your glory here
Arise and shine rest Your glory here
(REPEAT)
