I Lift My Hands

Author Dana Redricks

I lift my hands to 
give you glory
No one deserves
this honor
It was Christ who
rewrote my story
He took my shame
and he gave me
a new name
On the cross he took
the penalty for sin he
did not owe
He endured the 
shame
With no regrets
as he hung on the
cross taking his
last breath
but that not the
end of the story
Christ arose again
With honor and 
glory to give us the
perfect ending to
Our everlasting story
