Lyrics
Whoo, woah, oh, oh
Whoo, oh, oh
Whoo, woah, woah, woah, woah
Woah, woah, woah, woah
Woah, woah, woah
Whoo, woah, woah, woah, woah
Woah, woah, woah, woah
Woah, woah, woah
You gave me all that you could offer
Well I took that and a little more
You chewed me up and then the Scoffer
He took the keys and cut the cord
Well I fell for everything you said
But this rusty gold won't pay my debt
No, no, oh, oh
I lusted after your success
But ended broken here instead
And oh my, oh my, yeah
Who's this Man who paid my debt?
Open up my eyes
You're the Man, the Christ!
The only Hope for sinners in this life
Woah, oh, oh
Open up my heart
You're the Light in darkness cannot comprehend this God and Man
But You're the Rock on which I stand
Whoo, woah, oh, oh
Whoo, oh, oh
My mind was twisted up and skewed (Hallelujah Adonai)
My heart was split right into two (Hallelujah Adonai)
My soul was burdened down and blue (Hallelujah Adonai)
My strength was gone outside of You (Hallelujah Adonai)
But that's when You said to me (Hallelujah Adonai)
"Well, son, I reckon you're dead beat.. (Hallelujah Adonai)
..Your burdened soul, I can relieve!" (Hallelujah Adonai)
Woah, woah, woah
And so on that dark night I believed! (Hallelujah Adonai)
And oh my, oh my, yeah
Who's this Man who paid my debt?
Open up my eyes
You're the Man, the Christ!
The only Hope for sinners in this life
Woah, oh, oh
Open up my heart
You're the Light in darkness cannot comprehend this God and Man
But You're the Rock on which I stand
I'm the sexual impure who's mind's addicted and unsure
I'm the hater of Your Word, the one who spit at You and cursed
I'm the lazy one inside who's wasted years of his own life
I'm the sinner full of pride who's angry at his own dear wife
I'm the liar, I'm the thief, I'm the wretched man beneath
I'm the murderer of man, I'm the hater of Your Hand
God, I've hated on your Son, I've cast stones Christians
I forsook You for that gold, yet the Master gave tenfold!
I deserve the hottest flame, yet the Father called my name!
I'm the one whom You should kill, yet for me Your Blood was spilled!
I'm the one who nailed You there, yet the sin I have you bear!
I'm the one who has rebelled, yet You've saved my soul from hell!
And who's this man who paid my debt?
Open up my eyes
You're the Man, the Christ!
The only Hope for sinners in this life
Woah, oh, oh
Open up my heart
You're the Light in darkness cannot comprehend this God and Man
But You're the Rock on which I stand
Open up my mind (Hallelujah Adonai)
Jesus Son of God on high! (Hallelujah Adonai)
The only Name by which we can be saved! (Hallelujah Adonai)
Woah, woah, woah
Open up my soul (Hallelujah Adonai)
You're the Fountain flowing gold! (Hallelujah Adonai)
The only inspiration that Sufficed, (Hallelujah Adonai)
You're the man Jesus Christ! (Hallelujah Adonai)
You gave me all that you could give
But now, for Jesus Christ I live!
Hallelujah Adonai!
Hallelujah Adonai!
Hallelujah Adonai!
Hallelujah Adonai!
