Buried in the heart of the earth

Blood was shed for

There for three days bearing my shame

A world of men

This man of sorrows despised for His love

The blood at Calvary ransomed now oh my soul



I deserve the cross I deserve a death for I am fallen

Blood was shed for this world of men

I deserve the cross I deserve a death for I am fallen

Blood was shed for this world of men



Something was deeply wrong if God had to die

His body broken His blood was spilled

Even after all we've done You still justify

And Your words were spoken a life fulfilled



I deserve the cross I deserve a death for I am fallen

A Savior for the lost for I can't pay the debt of all 

of my sin



Who is a God like you who pardons sin and forgives the 

transgressions of the remnant of His inheritance?

This understanding of a God who can save us for we 

deserve a debt that we could not pay



Jesus paid it all

All to Him I owe

Sin had left a crimson stain

He washed it white as snow



A God who will save us

A God who will love us even after all we've done

To deserve a death of

That of a traitor who speaks with the most treasonous 

lips
