[Verse 1]
Born a babe, a virgin birth
My God the high and lofty One, You came to earth
To be a slave, servant of all
You washed my feet, You took my fall
[Chorus]
Though You were rich, You became poor
That You would die, that I might live
You poured out Your soul even to death
Taking my sin just to forgive me
[Verse 2]
Then they led You down the road
To a hill called Calvary
You took the nails in Your hands and feet
You drank the cup of wrath that was reserved for me
[Chorus]
Though You were rich, You became poor
That You would die, that I might live
You poured out Your soul even to death
Taking my sin just to forgive me
[Verse 3]
Laid in the ground, a stone cold tomb
The wrath of God resting on You
You knew no sin, yet sin became
From the foundation You are the Lamb who was slain
[Verse 4]
Up from the grave You rose again
You hold the keys of death and hell, You've conquered sin
You paid my debt, a costly price
I know that I will be with You in Paradise
[Chorus]
Though You were rich, You became poor
That You would die, that I might live
You poured out Your soul even to death
Taking my sin just to forgive me
And though You were rich, You became poor
That You would die, that I might live
You poured out Your soul even to death
Taking my sin just to forgive me
