Ransom For Many

Write your law on my heart

Put your word within me

Put the fear of You in my soul

So I might not turn away from Thee

Oh Ransom for many

Who freeely chose to rescue me

I would embrace the treasure

Of the blood that was shed to set me free

Secure my faithfulness

Secure a new heart and a new security

And bold as a lion I would be

For He has placed His righteousness in me…

Oh Ransom for many

Who freely chose to rescue me

I would embrace the treasure

Of the blood that was shed to set me free

The stain remains

And in death there is fear

The stain remains

Until Christ is held dear.

What comes from a man defiles

But the blood of Jesus reconciles.

You have forgiven me

And done what no one else could do

You have set my conscience free

And given a heart that is completely new.

Oh Ransom for many

Who freely chose to rescue me

I would embrace the treasure

Of the blood that was shed to set me free
