Our Iniquity On Christ
Lost sheep describes us well
for like them we've gone astray
bent on our selfishness and sin
this well describes our life every day
Nobody can enter in to be our help
we're lost in sin and nature's night
no hope describes what we are
but there is one to enter our fight
This one is Jesus God's own Son
indeed God laid on him our very sin
for he is our perfect substitute
paying our price our souls to win
All of our sins past present and future
Jesus took himself to Calvary's tree
such love can't be ever measured
this is God the lover of you and me
All our iniquity on Christ himself
He the sacrifice our sins was laid
bow in worship on Christ alone
so He our salvation perfectly paid
("We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of u has turned to our own way; the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all.") (Isaiah 53:6)
