Lyrics
Verse 1
Unclean and battered, torn by sin, by things I do, my thoughts within,
I lie there bloodied on life's road with death and sin my only load.
Verse 2
Across that road the world passed by turning a deaf ear to my cry,
No help to give, they could not save and so they left me for my grave.
Verse 3
And, what of me, when I saw need? Did I my Savior's bidding heed?
Too often on the other side I've walked away because of pride.
Verse 4
Sin bleeds from me and stops my breath, in Adam all I know is death;
My works are rags, my offerings vain, from dust I came in dust remain.
Verse 5
But in my need my Savior died, not passing on the other side.
Rebreathed His Spirit in my dust, bound up my wounds, declared me just.
Verse 6
Now safe within His Church I'm free; blood, water, Spirit plead for me,
The Ark of God, the Inn of Grace where I behold my Father's face.
Verse 7
May I in Christ my neighbor know binding his wounds serves Christ below.
Your love for him make plain through me, that he may, too, your Glory see.
Verse 8
You loved me when I could not love, for my sin barred me from above.
In Christ my love is now set free, O praise and bless the Trinity....
