A beautiful exchange...

Beautiful exchange

You were near

Though I was distant

Disillusioned I was

Lost and insecure

Still mercy fought

For my attention

You were waiting at the door

Then I let You in

Trading Your life

For my offenses

For my redemption

You carried all the blame

Breaking the curse

Of our condition

Perfection took our place

Chorus:

When only love could make a way

You gave Your life in a beautiful exchange

My burden erased

My life forgiven

There is nothing that could take this love away

And my only desire and sole ambition

Is to love You just the same

Chorus:

When only love could make a way

You gave Your life in a beautiful exchange

When only love could break these chains

You gave Your life in a beautiful exchange

Bridge:

Holy are You God

Holy is Your name

With everything I've got

My heart will sing how I love You

This song is from Hillsong latest album.

You were near...even though I was distant...lost and insecure..

You were waiting at the door, but I closed it.

You gave your life in a beautiful exchange, erased my sins. My life forgiven..

My life forgiven...yet...I live a life full of unforgiveness...

Teach me how to live a life which is said in the verse 'Colossians 3:13' (Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you.) as I am struggling living a life of such.

Lord you know forgiving one another is the hardest thing to do especially when you feel so hurt...

and Lord you know how long it takes to heal a wounded heart...

How do I live a life with obedience to Your word... To do as the word says. To forgive others like how You forgave us.....You love us unconditionally even when we fall away...when we closed the door, You are waiting at the other end, waiting for us to open the door and to let You in.

Teach me how...

so that I can live a life as You have intended for me.
