Tell me I’m forgiven and loved ‘Cause I hear it from the street corner priests On how God is love and how man can be clean But my joy has been on holiday And my peace has almost passed away Tell me I’m forgiven and free
I tried and tried to rectify my hopeless situation But I bought the lie I still have work to do Now I’m working nine to five like I can earn my own salvation But there is no condemnation in You
Whisper to me now that it’s for real ‘Cause in the silence of these walls righteousness lost its appeal Dirty deeds have done me in
But that can’t stop the faithful friend Giving mercy once again as You heal Here it is I’m feeling it
He died, He died to rectify my hopeless situation And His blood commands my guilt to leave Now on Calvary I stand Empty pockets, open hands
There is no condemnation for me
Child, you’re forgiven and loved Child, you’re forgiven and loved Child, you’re forgiven And child, you are loved Child, you’re forgiven and loved
I tried and tried to rectify my hopeless situation But I bought the lie I still have work to do Now I’m working nine to five like I can earn my own salvation But there is no condemnation in You
Whisper to me now that it’s for real ‘Cause in the silence of these walls righteousness lost its appeal Dirty deeds have done me in
But that can’t stop the faithful friend Giving mercy once again as You heal Here it is I’m feeling it
He died, He died to rectify my hopeless situation And His blood commands my guilt to leave Now on Calvary I stand Empty pockets, open hands
There is no condemnation for me
Child, you’re forgiven and loved Child, you’re forgiven and loved Child, you’re forgiven And child, you are loved Child, you’re forgiven and loved
