and I have been washed in the blood of the lamb
in my darkest hour I felt him touch me with his hand
and one day long ago on a lonely cross on calvary
he stretched out his hands and he died for me
to save me from my sin and to give me eternal life
to take away the darkness and instead shine his light
and it is my desire to worship him with all my soul
because he is the one who makes my life whole
chorus
praise the Lord
praise the Lord
for he is worthy of praise
praise the Lord
praise the Lord
cause I have been saved
beyond every kingdom, above every king on earth
none can ever measure up to what he is worth
he is the only king that deserves a crown
but the only one we gave him ripped in his brow
I will bow down to no one except him alone
the only one who sits on the highest throne
worship and praise belong to the one who died for me
paid for my cost though I was not even worthy
chorus
I praise you Lord every day that I am alive
I know that through my life you are always there
and every breath that's not taken to honor you
is a whaste of breath, a whaste of air
chorus
