He Would do It All Over Again

A guilty thief hung on a cross
For crimes that he had done
His final moments spent in shame
Next to God's own son
He cried out for mercy and asked for forgiveness
For such a wasted life
Jesus looked up and said child today
You'll be with me in paradise

Jesus carried my shame up calvary's mountain
And gave his life on a tree
He took the nails, the guilt and despair
For a wretched sinner like me
He died in my place, now I stand in grace
His love conquered every sin
And if saving me meant another cross
He would do it all over again

Well, my life's not all that it should be
I fail him everyday
But, praise the lord I'm not what I was
Before my life was changed
Though I was guilty and sentenced to death
My Jesus gave his life instead
He rescued my soul and cast every sin
As far as the east is from west

Jesus carried my shame up calvary's mountain
And gave his life on a tree
He took the nails, the guilt and despair
For a wretched sinner like me
He died in my place, now I stand in grace
His love conquered every sin
And if saving me meant another cross
He would do it all over again
