Debby Boone - When I Accepted You

Текст песни

You were poor
So that I might enjoy
The wealth of Your creation
You were punished
For all my mistakes
So I’d be declared not guilty
By association
You took all that I am heir to
And gave me all that belonged to You
What more could anyone do?
When I accepted You
I never realized
That I’d be accepted, too
It took awhile to see
That You bore God’s rejection
So He’d never turn away from me
I never knew
I would receive so much
When I accepted You
Accepted You
You met death
So that I might know life
And eternal restoration
You took on the world
So the likeness of God
Could be drawn upon my being
Like a blood relation
The deepest needs my lifetime through
Were all met on the cross by You
What more could anyone do?
When I accepted You
I never realized
That I’d be accepted, too
It took awhile to see
That You bore God’s rejection
So He’d never turn away from me
I never knew
I would receive so much
When I accepted You
When I accepted You
Oh, I never knew
I would receive so much
When I accepted You
Accepted You
Accepted You
