I greatly rejoice in the blessed Savior, who gave Himself for me;
Who on the cross, died so that from the curse of sin, I would be free.
He has given to me a new and redeemed life that never ends;
I can say, "Jesus died for my sins."
Since in my earthly journey, I still struggle daily with sin;
I need to hear the old message over and over again.
I need to hear and to believe the Gospel truth that never ends;
I stand on this sacred truth, "Jesus died for my sins."
At times, I've had many sorrows and pain in this earthly life;
I've had disappointments and have endured hardship and strife.
I need that old message that brings a courage that never ends;
I am strong because, "Jesus died for my sins."
Yes, this is a message that I cling to each and every day;
For it gives me strength, so that I'll not fall away.
This message has a truth that endures, and never ends;
To all I will declare, "Jesus died for my sins."
In Jesus, I have a solid rock and foundation;
Through faith in Him, I have the gifts of forgiveness and salvation.
I have a blessed peace that never ends;
I'm joyful in this truth, "Jesus died for my sins."
