Cityalight - The Battle And The Blessing Lyrics

We did not bear the wounds that freed us
Or walk the road to Calvary
We did not share Your cup of suffering
And yet we share Your victory

We did not wear that heavy burden
Nor face the shame and agony
A crown of thorns was placed upon You
Now we are crowned with love and peace

Praise the Lord, my God, now I am free
At the cross Your grace took hold of me
There You paid my debt, there You fought my fight
Yes, the battle was Yours and the blessing is mine

You chose to be a Man of Sorrows
That I can be a child of God
You stood and faced this world's rejection
I stand accepted by Your love

Praise the Lord, my God, now I am free
At the cross Your grace took hold of me
There You paid my debt, there You fought my fight
Yes, the battle was Yours and the blessing is mine
Yes, the battle was Yours and the blessing is mine

My sin was buried with the Saviour
Now there is hope beyond the tomb
For You were raised again in glory
And I am raised to life in You
Forevermore to live with You

Praise the Lord, my God, now I am free
At the cross Your grace took hold of me
There You paid my debt, there You fought my fight
Yes, the battle was Yours and the blessing is mine

Praise the Lord, my God, now I am free
At the cross Your grace took hold of me
There You paid my debt, there You fought my fight
Yes, the battle was Yours and the blessing is mine
Yes, the battle was Yours and the blessing is mine
Yes, the battle was Yours and the blessing is mine
