A STOLEN SALVATION
He promised me paradise
on the eve of His own demise
it was a stolen salvation
a gift from Jesus Christ
it was a stolen salvation
I was granted eternal life
He promised me
a heaven bound liberation
In the face of
His own earthly condemnation
it was a stolen salvation
a gift from Jesus Christ
it was a stolen salvation
I was granted eternal life
compassion on the cross
deliverence was given
a penitent thief
by Christ was forgiven
compassion on the cross
was Jesus our Savior
humanity personified
always granting favor
it was a stolen salvation
a gift from Jesus Christ
it was a stolen salvation
I was granted eternal life
even though I thought I was
too late
Jesus still gave me grace
It was a stolen salvation
a gift from Jesus Christ
it was a stolen salvation
I was granted eternal life
I wasn't a Christian nor a fan
of the one called the Son of Man
unaware of His ministry
all I cared about was me
it was a stolen salvation
a gift from Jesus Christ
it was a stolen salvation
I was granted eternal life
Jesus looked beyond my sins
granted me grace
most undeserving
yet
by the Holy Spirit
I was embraced
It was considered a stolen salvation
that gift from Jesus Christ
it was considered a stolen salvation
He granted me eternal life
It was a stolen salvation
a gift from Jesus Christ
it was a stolen salvation
the Messiah granted me eternal life
