[VERSE 1]
He put it all on that cross men
It is finished, and that was my Amen
John 11 verse 35 is where my Savior wept
Cos my soul was for hell kept
He wrote out a cheque in his blood y’all
For a people who were quick to fall
He did all this without expecting payback
And yet his love I never showed back
It seemed I couldn’t do right
I was made for night, couldn’t stand daylight
Couldn’t accept his will
He paid the bill
But my darkness could not comprehend light
What kind of God are you
That despite all my flaws, you pulled me close to you?
Even when I fall over
You pick me up again like it’s just us Jesus
[Chorus]
Number 1 to me
You're still number 1 to me
Number 1 to me
You're still number 1 to me
Even when I fall down
Even when I go back, yea
Even when I go wrong
You're still number 1 to me
[VERSE 2]
Did I know i was saved though
I had been told, but no care for God no!
It wasn’t what I’d done
It was all his son
But the boy I was never needed help no!
Putting me before him
He showed no love could have been greater
2 Cor 5 and 21, he embodied sin
So I can be a righteous being
Price on my head, blood on my hand
Filthy and stained, a son of the land
From which good came
But to me this was all just a game
I didn't believe his name
But he never let me go
He kept to show more love to me
He never let me go
Number 1
[Chorus]
Number 1 to me
You're still number 1 to me
Number 1 to me
You're still number 1 to me
Even when I fall down
Even when I go back, yea
Even when I go wrong
You're still number 1 to me
[VERSE 3]
His word lifted me
Said I should take it slow and let my past pass me by
He will make me new and make my future last
He made me a new bombshell
And not a blast from the past
I experienced Genesis all over again
When he said I was a new creation
Cos my past life was null and void
But he took it and molded it
He breathed into it once again
When sin suffocated it
I was under Satan's asthmatic attack
Until Jesus became my inhaler
He said, your past life might have hurt you
But I will be your healer
And he is still number 1 to me
Cos despite all my flaws
And all the things that I keep doing
That are not in his will
He never treats me different
He never looks down upon me
He said I should climb up
And just lift my face upon the hill
From whence comes my help
And he will keep being number 1 to me
Thank you Jesus
[Chorus]
