connor edwards - HOW TO GET TO HEAVEN Lyrics

Dead in the wages of my sin
Lost and no hope within
I tried and tried on my own
But surrender's the only way to go
Cause I'd be bound for hell
In the mess that I created
I couldn't save myself
From the cross where I'd be hanging
But Jesus traded a throne for a manger
And traded crowns for a cross
He won my soul forever
I was dead
If being good was how to get to heaven
For all have sinned and fall short
But it only takes one choice
Through Jesus I've been justified
I boast in Christ, it's not mine
Cause I'd be bound for hell
In the mess that I created
I couldn't save myself
From the cross where I'd be hanging
But Jesus traded a throne for a manger
And traded crowns for a cross
He won my soul forever
I was dead
If being good was how to get to heaven
I can't do enough to be
All that Jesus was for me
He laid perfection down
That was the only way out
I'd be bound for hell
In the mess that I created
I couldn't save myself
From the cross where I'd be hanging
But Jesus traded a throne for a manger
And traded crowns for a cross
He won my soul forever
I was dead
If being good was how to get to heaven
