King's Ransom |
It’s such a paradox — it’s such a mystery |
Why a King would leave His throne to save humanity |
They could not have known when they mocked Him in disgrace |
They could not have known when they spit upon His face |
The Rose of Sharon wore a crown of thorns that day |
The carpenter had a nail right through His hand |
The Master of the earth became a servant of no worth |
And paid a King’s ransom for my soul |
He paid a King’s ransom for my soul |
Creator of the earth — Name above all names |
Some just stood in unbelief when listening to His claims |
They could not have known when they hit Him with their fists |
They could not have known when they nailed his feet and wrists |
The ransom that He paid was the sacrifice he made |
The life of a King in place of me |
The shame that He bore for the rich and for the poor |
Changed His crown of thorns into glory |
