Goodbye Scarlet
by Once By Fire

Lyrics:

VERSE 1
Who am I that You should
Look upon me favourably?
These hands have brought You grief, Lord
My eyes have wanted endlessly
Oh, Lord

VERSE 2
Who are we that You would
Leave Your throne on high to lead
A people cold, and stiff-necked
Who’d stand aside and watch You bleed?

PRE-CHORUS
I know I’m wicked inside
(this flesh is wicked inside)
I can’t make it all better
You know I’m broken inside
(I am broken inside)
You put me back together
Take my life
Will You make beauty from these ashes?
You made me, You saved me
You love me, You’re holy

CHORUS
You are My Only
I am purchased by this blood
You shed for me
We came up short
And You paid for us
You’re the only One
I give my worship to
Oooh….oooh…

VERSE 3
Who is man that You would
Give Your son to suffer these?
The king of all mankind has
Stepped down to meet us on our knees
Oh, You reach to me

VERSE 3
I used to say I would
Make my way by my good deeds

You never meant much to me then
Suddenly, You cut me deeply
Now I believe

PRE-CHORUS
I know I’m wicked inside
(this flesh is wicked inside)
I can’t make it all better
You know I’m broken inside
(I am broken inside)
You put me back together
Take my life
Will You make beauty from these ashes?
You made me, You saved me
You love me, You’re holy

CHORUS
You are My Only
I am purchased by this blood
You shed for me
We came up short
And You paid for us
You’re the only One
I give my worship to
(into “vocal solo”)

“BRIDGE
Today I pledge my allegiance
To the God who made the world
Today I pledge my allegiance
To the Son who saved the world
Today I pledge my allegiance
To the One who loves the world
Today I pledge my allegiance
To You

CHORUS
You are My Only
I am purchased by this blood
You shed for me
We came up short and
You paid for us
You’re the only One
I give my worship to

Oooh...oooh...
Oooh...oooh...

Related Bible verses (NKJV): 1 Chronicles 16:25 "For the Lord is great and greatly to be praised; He is also to be feared above all gods." Philipians 2:5-11 "Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men. And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross. Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father."
