Through Your shame we came alive

Caught in hope, a love so relentless

Bought with a price, we are alive

Bm        A            D        GBecause I'm alive, I'll give You my life
Bm        A            D        GBecause I am free, I'll bow at Your feet
Bm        A                 D        GBecause I am loved, I'm able to love
