Wrapped
in garments stained by sin
I
could not look up to heaven
For
the shame revealed within.
Then
the Lamb of God Incarnate
Stood
in robes of dazzling white
As
His holy justice vanquished
Every
pretense from His sight.
Tears
of anguish broke upon me
Waves
of guilt exposed my soul
As
repentance ceased my wanderings
I
became as white as snow.
Then
His words of love came flowing
From
above the Mercy Seat
Where
the nail prints of His justice
Offered
grace for my defeat.
Shouts
of praise began to fill me
Freedom's
song began to flow
As
the honor and the glory
Rose
to Christ who loved me so.
