Lyrics

Consider Christ
the source of our salvation.
That he should take the penalty for me.
Though he was pure,
a lamb without blemish;
he took my sins
and nailed them to a tree.

My Lord and God
you are so rich in mercy
mere words alone are not sufficient thanks,
so take my life,
transform, renew and change me
that I might be a living sacrifice.

Consider Christ
that he could trust his Father
in the garden of Gethsemane.
Though full of dread
and fearful of the anguish;
he drank the cup
that was reserved for me.

Consider Christ
for death he has defeated.
And he arose, appeared for all to see.
And now he sits
at God’s right hand in Heaven;
where he prepares
a resting place for me.
