I once was lost in darkest night/Yet thought I knew the way/The sin that promised joy and life/Had led me to the grave/I had no hope that You would own/A rebel to Your will/And if You had not loved me first/I would refuse You still
But as I ran my hell-bound race/Indifferent to the cost/You looked upon my helpless state/And led me to the cross/And I beheld God’s love displayed/You suffered in my place/You bore the wrath reserved for me/Now all I know is grace
Hallelujah! All I have is Christ
Hallelujah! Jesus is my lifeNow, Lord, I would be Yours alone/And live so all might see/The strength to follow Your commands/Could never come from me/Oh Father, use my ransomed life/In any way You choose/And let my song forever be/My only boast is You

Animated Gospel Song
Some very simple lyrics from Sovereign Grace Music coupled with simple animation equals a powerful and worshipful presentation of the Gospel.
Also heard in this video is a brief message from CJ Mahaney.
Here are the lyrics to The Gospel Song:
Holy God in love became
Perfect man to bear my blame.
On the cross he took my sin.
By his death I live again.
Power of the Cross
Oh, to see the dawn of the darkest day:
Christ on the road to Calvary.
Tried by sinful men,
Torn and beaten, then
Nailed to a cross of wood.CHORUS:
This, the pow’r of the cross:
Christ became sin for us;
Took the blame, bore the wrath—
We stand forgiven at the cross.Oh, to see the pain written on your face,
Bearing the awesome weight of sin.
Ev’ry bitter thought, Ev’ry evil deed
Crowning Your bloodstained brow.Now the daylight flees; Now the ground beneath
Quakes as its Maker bows His head.
Curtain torn in two, Dead are raised to life;
“Finished!” the vict’ry cry.Oh, to see my name written in the wounds,
For through Your suffering I am free.
Death is crushed to death;
Life is mine to live,
Won through your selfless love.FINAL CHORUS:
This, the pow’r of the cross:
Son of God—slain for us.
What a love! What a cost!
We stand forgiven at the cross.
My Jesus I Love Thee
Lord Dissolve My Frozen Heart
Lord, dissolve my frozen heart/ By the beams of Love Divine;/ This alone can warmth impart/ To dissolve a heart like mine.
O that love, how vast it is!/ Vast, it seems, though known in part;/ Strange indeed, if love like this/ Should not melt the frozen heart.
Chorus: The love of Christ passes knowledge./ The Love of Christ eases fear./ The love of Christ hits a man’s heart;/ It pierces him like a spear.
Savior, let thy love be felt,/ Let it’s power be felt by me,/ Then my frozen heart shall melt,/ Melt in love, o Lord to thee.
