Lyrics
Verse1:
Harmony
Everything was right where it was s'posed to be
I thought that nothing in my life was out of place
'Til I began to seek your face
Now suddenly I realize
My whole life is based upon a web of lies
And I'm dressed in filthy rags before your eyes
Yet you've prepared a place for me
Chorus:
For when I stand in Jesus
All you see is His perfection
When I stand in Jesus
I am righteous in your site
And all the times I've failed you
Are cast into the sea
Of your forgotten memories
When I stand in Jesus
His perfection's all you see
Verse 2:
Irony
I have come so far from what I used to be
And Lord, sometimes it's so easy to forget
That I'm still not perfect yet
There are precious people that you prize
Whom I'm jealous of, I've judged or just despised
I need to see them through the mercy of your eyes
The way that you saw me
Chorus 2:
For when they stand in Jesus
All you see is His perfection
When they stand in Jesus
They are righteous in your sight
And all their imperfections
Are cast into the sea
Of what was never meant to be
When they stand in Jesus
The Saviour's all You see
Chorus 3:
When we stand in Jesus
All you see is His perfection
When we stand in Jesus
We are righteous in your sight
And all the times we've failed you
Are cast into the sea of your forgotten memory
When we stand in Jesus
His perfection's all you see
