I understand your pain; br I've partaken of your loss; br Though I could have had great gain, br I but chose an ugly cross. br br My life was filled with grief; br Disappointment followed me; br But I never sought relief br From the shame that had to be. br br Yielding to my Father's plan br To reveal His love for all, br I took death for every man, br Paying for the sinner's fall. br br I knelt down to bind the wound br Dealt by Satan on the world. br 'Twas resentment that I found; br Stones against my breast were hurled. br br In rejection, I loved on; br Though despised, I trusted yet. br Though I suffered all alone, br My prize I dared not to forfeit. br br br For to walk with you today, br Hold you up to bear my name, br Lead you in my Father's way, br Is the reason that I came.
