The Great Exchange Pt. 1

Verse 1
My 2 hugest problems/ can’t be solved by human logic/ or by a clueless college student’s putrid knowledge—that’s foolish non-sense!/ see I am ruined, godless/ and so are you, dude if you are honest/ so it’s a losing contest/ to compare yourself to GOD who’s TRUE and FLAWLESS// problem 1: God demands perfection/ because “The I AM” detests sin/ so without a perfect righteousness/ no heaven—no eternal life and bliss/ so why pretend, lie, and plot?/ God is righteous and I am not!/ His Law shows I’m awful grimy/ my unrighteousness disqualifies me!/ even as a Christian/ I’m mad deficient/ and I lack sufficient, Righteousness/ problem 2 is: Yo! There’s a price for this!/ problem 2: God must punish sin!/ Behold: The Just Judge, Avenged!/ with perfect vengeance/ and our guilt deserves an Eternal Sentence!/ Problem 2, God is True to His Glory and His Honor’s due/ so God’s got to prove/ that us hating Him is not excused!/ The Awful news: for all eternity His Wrath will fall on you/ The Awful news/ what are us unrighteous, guilty sinners all to do?!?
Hook 1:
Problem One- His Law demands this: that we obey all commandments
Problem Two- His Law demands this: that sinners be judged, so all are banished!
Problem One- His Law demands this: that we obey all commandments
Problem Two- His Law demands this: that sinners be judged, so all are banished!
I need a righteousness/ plus I need to appease His Mighty Fist/
but my works are trash and flawed/ plus I deserve the Wrath of God!/
I need a righteousness/ plus I need to appease His Mighty Fist/
Behold, God’s Provision: is Jesus Christ, who’s All-Sufficient!!!

Verse 2
My sin as a whole was a giant mount/ none could try to count its size amount/ but God counted all my pride and doubt/ on His Son when He was crying out: “WHY HAVE YOU FORSAKEN ME?!?!”/ was that violent shout/ though not a lie in His Mind or Mouth/ Perfectly Pure—Inside and Out/ so now God counts no sin to my account!/ ‘Cause He counted my sin to Christ’s account!/ so now it’s only right to get hype and shout!/ He suffered God’s Holy Jealousy/ the equivalent of the Whole of Hell—for ME!/ sin’s wage is death/ so He paid the debt/ so the Father has no Anger left/ God’s wrath’s in silence/ Christ satisfied this/ but there’s more to the Master’s Kindness:/ He doesn’t just let me live/ and erase my infinite debt that’s negative/ He don’t just erase the sin in it…but He credits my account with infinite Righteousness!/ because of the Perfect Life that Christ has lived/ for 33 years before the awful Tree/ yo! Christ fulfilled the Law for me!/ So now God with delight receives us/ like we lived the perfect life of Jesus/ like we was all fulfilling’ the Law/ so now we have the right to be called children of God/ the grace of Jesus: is by the Father I’m now just as embraced as He is! / You took all worst of me/ and You give me Your Best, like I lived perfectly!
Hook 2: (based on 2nd Cor. 5:21)

This is the Great Exchange/ All my sin placed on Christ, who takes the blame/

then makes the trade-- His Righteousness placed on me, I praise His Name!

This is the Great Exchange/ All my sin placed on Christ, who takes the blame/

then makes the trade-- His Righteousness placed on me, His Grace displayed!
Nothing’s Greater: that Christ the LORD of Glory,

fulfilled the Law--performed it for me!

What a Savior! that Christ the LORD of Glory,

took all my sin and bore it for me!

Abundant Favor! Christ the LORD of Glory,

spilled all His Blood and poured it for me!

Trust and Savor! Christ the LORD of Glory,endured the Wrath of God--Absorbed it for me!!!
