Lyrics

Verse 1
Oh the loveliness of what I see
The love of God revealed to me
Bruised for our iniquities
When You said, “Blame me instead”

Pre-Chorus
A love as strong as death
Desire that could not rest

Chorus
Nothing could quench Your love
Nothing could quench Your love
Seeking blamelessness for us
Nothing could quench Your love
Nothing could quench Your love
You wanted me and that was enough
To count the shame of the cross as a small thing
Nothing could quench Your love for me

Verse 2
Forsaking all You had for me
From eternal pleasure, now made weak
Knowing all that it would mean
Still You said, “Blame me instead”

Pre-Chorus
A love as strong as death
Desire that could not rest

Chorus
Nothing could quench Your love
Nothing could quench Your love
Seeking blamelessness for us
Nothing could quench Your love
Nothing could quench Your love
You wanted me and that was enough
To count the shame of the cross as a small thing
Nothing could quench Your love for me

Bridge
Where are my accusers now?
Nowhere to be found
Now we’re entering the glory You laid down
Where are my accusers now?
Nowhere to be found
Now we’re entering the glory You laid down

Chorus
Nothing could quench Your love
Nothing could quench Your love
Seeking blamelessness for us
Nothing could quench Your love
Nothing could quench Your love
You wanted me and that was enough
To count the shame of the cross as a small thing
Nothing could quench Your love for me
