lyrics

Who can find me in this darkness?
Who can heal my mortal wounds?
Who would bring me to their table
When with hell I did commune?
Who can pay my captor's ransom,
When the sentence is the grave?
Only Jesus, only Jesus
By no other name I'm saved

Who would leave His home in Heaven,
Born to worlds of fallen men?
Who could walk in perfect union,
With the Father, free from sin?
At the fullness of the ages,
Who could fill the law’s demand?
Only Jesus, only Jesus
Fully God and fully man

In the garden, full of sorrow,
Who would pray ‘Thy will be done’?
Who would walk the road to calvary
Knowing well the death to come?
When the Father, God eternal,
Poured his wrath out, sharp and just
Only Jesus, only Jesus
Would drink every drop for us

When he cried out, it is finished
When the whole creation groaned
When they laid Him in the darkness,
When they closed it with a stone,
Who could burst forth with all victory?
Who could crush the serpent head?
Only Jesus, only Jesus
He is risen from the dead

Who is able to restore me
When the world is pressing in?
Who is always interceding
'Till the day when freed from sin?
Who could love me, guide and help me?
Great high priest and Living Word
Only Jesus, only Jesus
My redeemer and my Lord

Who could love me, guide and help me?
Great high priest and Living Word
Only Jesus, only Jesus
My redeemer and my Lord
