Life Restored

I look upon the cross
To see who was hanging there.
I look, "Who is he"?
They say he's Jesus Christ, the Son of God.

I look upon the cross
I find myself to blind to see.
Tears running down my face
It is Him that paid the cost.

As I look upon the cross
Mine eyes now have been opened.
Bright light enfolds me
It is Him that gave me sight to see.

I look upon the cross
My life has been restored.
Jesus Christ - gave His life
To save those, the likes of me.
