Lord God of Heaven looked on sinful men:
They were nothing but sin every way.
But he chose a number as the sands of the sea:
His Son said their sin-debt I'll pay.
Chorus:
And a ransom was found; yes, a ransom was found.
Love paid the price on Calvary's mount;
And judgment was met and the law satisfied
And mercy was born when a ransom was found.
Lord Jesus stopped by heart's door one day
An alien by sin I was bound;
But He loved me and told the God of this world
Turn him loose for a ransom's been found.
As poor wretched sinners no God and no hope
It seemed there was no one to help.
But God in His mercy salvation supplied,
Emptied heaven and came down Himself.
