about

Written in response to a sermon years ago by an amazing man named Dick Foth. He would always quote what then became part of my chorus for this song. I am obliged to him for the hook, line, and sinker!! What an amazing thought, that Jesus left heaven and came to take our place on the cross - He who never knew sin, became sin for us, that we could then become righteous in His sight!! He gave us the free gift of grace. All we have to do is receive it!!

lyrics

Verse
You were in every way like God
Yet in every way like me
It wasn’t like You couldn’t feel the pain
When they nailed You to that tree

It was for freedom that You died
You died to set the captives free
It was the power of Your death
That gave new life to me

Chorus
You left Your place
Came to mine
You took my place
Just in time
You put Your life on the line
You left Your place
Came to mine

Verse
There’s no greater love than this
This love I have in You
I’m letting go of every lesser thing
Cuz I’ve fallen for the Truth
You have bought me with a price
A debt I never could repay
So it’s the least that I can do
To give my life away

Chorus
You left Your place
Came to mine
You took my place
Just in time
You put Your life on the line
You left Your place
Came to mine

Bridge
You died for me
Surely I can live for You
Since You laid down Your life
Well the least I can do is be a living sacrifice

Instrumental

Chorus
You left Your place
Came to mine
You took my place
Just in time
You put Your life on the line
You left Your place
Came to mine
