Innocent
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I've been holding on to
Everything that leaves me empty
Why can't I just let it go?
It's so hard to see through
Don't know how it always gets me
Or how I got down this road
I could never do enough,
There's no way to buy Your love
'Cause You've already paid
For all the things I've done
Chorus:
And You say to me
That I'm already innocent
And I can't believe
You take me as I am
And I'm on my knees
Begging for forgiveness
I know I'm guilty, but You make me innocent
How can You forgive me
When You know it's not the last time
And You know I'm gonna fall again?
Though my hands were dirty,
You were the One who died to cover all my sins
I could never do enough
There's no way to buy Your love
'Cause you've already paid
For all the things I've done
Chorus:
You say to tme
That I'm already innocent
And I can't believe
You take me as I am
And I'm on my knees
Begging for forgiveness
I know I'm guilty, but You make me innocent
I know I don't deserve it
I know I'll never earn it
So tell me how You can hold me in Your arms
Chorus:
And say to me
That I'm already innocent
And I can't believe
You take me as I am
And I'm on my knees
Begging for forgiveness
I know I'm guilty
Yeah I know I'm guilty
But You make me innocent
You make me innocent
