Lyrics

Verse 1 Our life began like any other man, held beneath a mother's loving gaze And somewhere between now and then I lost the man I could have been Took ev'rything that wasn't mine to take but love believes that it is not too late Verse 2 Only one of us deserves this cross, our suffering that belong to me And deep within this man I hang beside is the place where shame and grace collide And it's beautiful agony that believes it's not too late for me Chorus 1 This is how love wins ev'ry single time, and climbing high upon a tree Where someone else should die, this is how love heals the deepest part of you Letting Himself bleed into the middle of your wounds, this is how love says Standing at the door, you don't have to be who you've been before Silenced by His voice, death can't speak again, this is how love wins Verse 3 Did you see this moment from the start That we would drink this cup of suffering I wonder did we ever meet, childhood games and dusty streets Verse 4 For all my many sorrows and regrets nothing could compare to just this one That in the presence of my King I cannot fall upon my knees I cannot carry You up to Your throne, You instead will carry me back home Bridge What can wash away my sin, nothing but the blood, nothing but the blood What can make me whole again, nothing but the blood, nothing but the blood Chorus 2 'Cause this is what love says standing at the door You don't have to be who you've been before Silenced by His death can't speak again, this is how love wins...
