Lyrics
Our Worth is fixed in you Lord
Our worth is firmly established in the Lord.
Our Shame Erased in your blood
Our shame is eliminated through the sacrifice of Jesus' blood.
The weight of sin you came to bear
Jesus took on the burden of sin.
All renown we point to you
All recognition and honor are directed towards Jesus.
