Mandisa - Not Guilty lyrics

I stand accused there's a list a mile long
Of all my sins
Of everything that I've done wrong
I'm so ashamed
There's nowhere left for me to hide
This is the day i must answer for my life

My fate is in the Judge's hands
But then He turns to me and says

I know you i love you
I gave My life to save you
Love paid the price for mercy
My verdict not guilty

How can it be? I can't begin to comprehend
What kind of grace
Would take the place of all my sin?
I stand in awe now that I have been set free
And the tears well up as I look at that cross
'Cause it should have been me

My fate was in the nail scarred hands
He stretched them out for me and said

"I know you i love you
I gave My life to save you
Love paid the price for mercy
My verdict not guilty"

I'm falling on my knees to thank You
With everything I am, I'll praise You
So grateful for the words I heard You say

I know you i love you
I gave My life i love you
I love you i gave My life just to save you
Love paid the price for mercy
My verdict is not guilty
Love paid the price for mercy
My verdict not guilty (Not guilty)
Not guilty
