Lyrics
Who would rescue me
Who would look in my direction
Who would pay the price
For such a wasted life
CHORUS
A crown of thorns
The King of Ransom wore
Mercy flowed through His wounds that heal me
Nailed to His throne and lifted off the earth
The King of Ransom bought our second birth
Who could hold such love
Who could give such an answer
Who would cherish me
After I held myself for ransom
CHORUS
