There's a reason why I bring 
You this simple offering
Pouring out my love to You
And though my heart cannot express
All this joy and gratefulness
Still I sing this song of love and thanks and praise

It's because I'm forgiven
It's because I am free
It's because You've shown me mercy and You believed in me
It's because You are my Savior
It's because You are my friend
And Your love it lifts me higher than I've ever been

Oh, the wonder of Your ways
Oh, the measure of Your grace
Greater than my heart can know
So how could I not celebrate
How could I not bless Your name
Singing out a song of love and thanks and praise, oh yeah

It's because I'm forgiven
It's because I am free
It's because You've shown me mercy and You believed in me
It's because You are my Savior
It's because You are my friend
And Your love it lifts me higher than I've ever been

It's because You are my Savior
It's because You are my friend
And Your love it lifts me higher than I've ever been

So my child
Higher than I've ever been

It's because I'm forgiven
It's because I am free
It's because I'm forgiven
It's because I am free
I am free
