Guilherme Kerr, Shaila Kerr - The Great Exchange Lyrics

There's pain that we carry too close to our hearts
So deep they are scary, they keep us apart
But time cannot heal the wounds of our soul
Offense not forgiven is hard to control
Sometimes we keep feeding the negative voices
The sounds of our choices the echoes of pain
The sting of a word comes a-ripping and cutting
It blinds us, it finds us, it hurts us again
They blame and they mark us, they shame and they stark us
Like flowers the heat has destroyed long ago
Like waters polluted from fountains unsafe
Like roots turning bitter like hope when delayed
But all of our suffering Messiah took over
And all our distresses Messiah put on
Was hurt and afflicted unlike any other
Stripped down and despised a king without throne
That's why his is familiar with all of our sorrow
With scars caused by fire, with cuts made by swords
He knows our emotions, He saw our tomorrow
He found and pursued us this Jesus our Lord
He offered Himself to forgive and restore us
A love so refreshing a peace without end
His life for our lives our Messiah laid for us
Once and for all it is finished. Amen
But all of our suffering Messiah took over
And all our distresses Messiah put on
Was hurt and afflicted unlike any other
Stripped down and despised a king without throne
That's why his is familiar with all of our sorrow
With scars caused by fire, with cuts made by swords
He knows our emotions, He saw our tomorrow
He found and pursued us this Jesus our Lord
He offered Himself to forgive and restore us
A love so refreshing a peace without end
His life for our lives our Messiah laid for us
Once and for all it is finished. Amen
He offered Himself to forgive and restore us
A love so refreshing a peace without end
His life for our lives our Messiah laid for us
Once and for all it is finished. Amen
