Lyrics

[Verse 1] There's a reason why I bring You this simple offering Pouring out my love to You And though my heart cannot express All this joy and gratefulness Still I sing this song of love and thanks and praise [Chorus] It's because I'm forgiven It's because I am free It's because You've shown my mercy And You believed in me It's because You are my Savior It's because You are my friend And Your love it lifts me higher Than I've ever been [Verse 2] Oh the wonder of Your ways Oh the measure of Your grace Greater than my heart can know So how could I not celebrate How could I not bless Your name Singing out a song of love and thanks and praise [Chorus] It's because I'm forgiven It's because I am free It's because You've shown my mercy And You believed in me It's because You are my Savior It's because You are my friend And Your love it lifts me higher Than I've ever been It's because You are my Savior It's because You are my friend And Your love it lifts me higher Than I've ever been [Ending] So much higher Higher than I've ever been It's because I'm forgiven It's because I am free It's because I'm forgiven It's because I am free I'm free
