Forgiven and loved-Jimmy Needham
Tell me I'm forgiven and loved
Cause I hear it from the street corner priest
On how God is love and how man can be cleaned
But my joy has been on holiday
And my peace has almost past away
Tell me I'm forgiven and free
Oh I tried and tried
To rectify my hopeless situation
But I bought the lie I still have work to do
Now i'm working nine to five like I can earn my own salvation
But there is no condemnation in You
O whisper to me now that it's for real
Cause in the silence of these walls righteousness lost its appeal
Dirty deeds have done me in
O but that can't stop the faithful friend
Giving mercy once again as You heal
Here it is I'm feeling it
Chorus)
O He died, He died to rectify my hopeless situation
And His blood commands my guilt to leave
Now on Calvary I stand
Empty pockets, open hands
O there is no condemnation for me
(Chorus)
Child, you're forgiven and loved
Child, you're forgiven and loved
Child, you're forgiven
And child, you are loved
Child, you're forgiven and loved
----------------------------------------
Today I felt God's grace.
I need Him to tell me I was forgiven and loved.
He did.
I pulled my first weed from my life.
I finally felt the first bit of hope in this confusion.
I am forgiven and loved.
The next is to forgive myself.
Tell me I'm forgiven and loved
Cause I hear it from the street corner priest
On how God is love and how man can be cleaned
But my joy has been on holiday
And my peace has almost past away
Tell me I'm forgiven and free
Oh I tried and tried
To rectify my hopeless situation
But I bought the lie I still have work to do
Now i'm working nine to five like I can earn my own salvation
But there is no condemnation in You
O whisper to me now that it's for real
Cause in the silence of these walls righteousness lost its appeal
Dirty deeds have done me in
O but that can't stop the faithful friend
Giving mercy once again as You heal
Here it is I'm feeling it
Chorus)
O He died, He died to rectify my hopeless situation
And His blood commands my guilt to leave
Now on Calvary I stand
Empty pockets, open hands
O there is no condemnation for me
(Chorus)
Child, you're forgiven and loved
Child, you're forgiven and loved
Child, you're forgiven
And child, you are loved
Child, you're forgiven and loved
