Verse 1

Born to be slain
Born to be mocked
Born so my sins
Could be nailed to the cross

Verse 2

The wrath of the Father
Poured out on His Son
My death redirected
His victory won

Pre Chorus

We long for absolution
We long for holy things
Jesus rectify our hearts we pray
That in everything we do
We’re running after You
We’re running after You

Chorus

King of Heaven in my stead
You were murdered for my sins
Man of sorrow I won’t forget
That You were raised to life again

Verse 3

Born into weakness
But returning in strength
For the high King of Heaven
Forever will reign

Pre Chorus

We long for absolution
We long for holy things
Jesus rectify our hearts we pray
That in everything we do
We’re running after You
We’re running after You

Chorus

King of Heaven in my stead
You were murdered for my sins
Man of sorrow I won’t forget
That You were raised to life again

Bridge 1

My rags turned righteousness
My guilt was slain with my sin
My name is changed in His death
My hope is built
On His resurrection

Bridge 2

In Christ I am made whole
By grace His presence I know
His name engraved on my heart
My life a born-again
Hallelujah

Pre Chorus

We long for absolution
We long for holy things
Jesus rectify our hearts we pray
That in everything we do
We’re running after You
We’re running after You

Chorus

King of Heaven in my stead
You were murdered for my sins
Man of sorrow I won’t forget
That You were raised to life again
