When I couldn't find redemption or revival When I couldn't find salvation in a song When everything I had had hit rock bottom And everyone I ever knew was gone There was mercy waiting for me in the shadows It was binding up this bruised and broken soul He said leave behind that man of constant sorrow Then He wrote my name in the greatest story told And on that old rugged cross, where my Savior bore my scars Perfect love destroyed my fears An eternity of failures have been swallowed up forever 'Cause by His wounds all of mine are healed My debt's been paid in full there's no more ransom There's forgiveness flowing freely from His hands By His torn up flesh and bone He is redeeming And a sinner is no longer who I am And on that old rugged cross, where my Savior bore my scars Perfect love destroyed my fears An eternity of failures have been swallowed up forever 'Cause by His wounds all of mine are healed There's no looking back now The grave's been emptied out The son of God defeated death and made a way You can run to Him now Go on and run to Him now Child of God born again to bear His name On that old rugged cross, where my Savior bore my scars Perfect love destroyed my fears Hey An eternity of failures have been swallowed up forever 'Cause by His wounds all of mine are healed By His wounds all of mine are healed Oh they're healed
