Lord, if I could write a love song,
It would be especially for You!
It wouldn't be about a love gone wrong,
Or a heart that had proved untrue.

I would mention Your Precious Name,
In each and every line,
Telling how with love You came,
Into this heart of mine!

If I could direct a symphony,
With each instrument in place,
Oh, what an honor it would be,
To play "Amazing Grace!"

If I could take the brush of Grace,
And portray upon my heart,
The image of Your loving Face,
The tears of joy would start!

If I could lift my voice and sing,
With a Spirit-filled, Blood-bought Choir,
To offer praises to my King,
It would fulfill my greatest desire!

For Lord, I remember how You died,
Upon the cruel Tree.
The Blood flowed from Your Hands,
Feet, and Side,
To save a wretch like me!
