On my worst of days, what can wash away my sin?
When I fall again and I hear “condemned,” on this I’ll stand
Living the life I could not live, Dying the death that I deserved
Jesus in my place, Jesus in my place
This is hope, this is grace, Jesus in my place
On my best of days, what can wash away my pride?
When my greatest deeds fail to make me clean, in this I’ll trust
On that final day, when I stand and face my God
Bold and confident, I will say Lord this is all I have
Living the life I could not live, Dying the death that I deserved
Bearing my sin to pay the price, Rising again to give me life!
Jesus in my place, Jesus in my place
This is hope, this is grace, Jesus in my place
Mercy on display, powerful to save
This is life, this is faith, Jesus in my place
