Just as I am with one defence
Jesus is all my righteousness
It’s not what I do but what’s already done
I rest at the cross trust in His blood
Your mercy Your mercy
That You graciously give and I freely receive
Your mercy Your mercy
By Your mercy I live
Boldly I run to Your throne of grace
Confident Christ has made the way
Here I draw near in my time of need
Finding Your grace has banished my fear
I was broken, dead and hopeless
Your mercy has overcome
Once a stranger shown Your favour
Your mercy has overcome
