A Beautiful Exchange
You for me on a tree
So I can be all I should be
From a midnight hour
I received all power
It was a Beautiful exchange
You for me
I couldn’t climb to the mountain top
My pain and my shame caused me to stop
Then the earth began to quake
It was all for my sake
I began to cry
And then ask why
It was a Beautiful exchange
You for me
Silence and darkness hovered over me
Three more days until I could see
Then darkness and death bowed its knee
The light of His Love set me free
It was a Beautiful exchange
You for me
Free to live and Love like Him
Free to walk away from sin
Not only be able to conquer and stand
But lift up others, give them a hand
It was a Beautiful exchange
You for me
He’s all you’ll ever want or need
He wants followers, His sheep to feed
So give away all you receive
Sow into others all you believe
Lay down your life, love well and pray
Walk where He walks, give yourself away
It’s a Beautiful Exchange!
