[1] joy could never show how much he loves me
And peace cannot explain how much he cares
It's hard to imagine it seems impossible
That he could love someone like me
He gave all he had for my freedom
And when it was complete I had the choice
I could be forgiven for every thing
All I had to do was believe
[Cho:] and he took my sin away
He showed me a brand new way
The moment I gave my life to him
He took my sin away
Modulation: tenor lead starts here
[2] sometimes life gets rough around the edges
And my heart may become a little cold
I have a loving father he's always there
Just waiting for my call to come back home
I wish that I would never stray away
And I'll try never to drift away again
I'm not bound by sin I shouldn't walk therein
I must keep my eyes on the lord
Hard modulation
[Cho:] he took my sin away
He showed me a brand new way
The moment I gave my life to him
He took my sin
[Tag:] he took my sin
He took my sin away
Away
