I was an orphan, lost at the fall; Running away when I’d hear you call,

I had no righteousness of my own, I had no right to draw near your throne,

But Father, you loved me still.

I worked my fingers down to the bone; But nothing I did could ever atone,

But Jesus, you paid my debt.

And you rose that I might be a new creation.
