about

A couple years ago I lead a discipleship course called Story Formed Life, and was inspired to write some songs about the Story of God. I had hoped to make a concept album, but only a few of the songs I started on the project got finished. This is one of them. It's the story of the Lamb slain before the foundation of the world for a broken and sinful people who were eternally separate from God and hopeless without Him. Yet, this spotless sacrifice, the only Son of God, was sufficient for covering a multitude of sins and giving us righteousness and peace in Him. The song is derived from Isaiah 53, the most detailed and glorious prophecy of the Messiah's saving work on the cross.
This is the good news! This is love! Who would give their life for an enemy?! Well, God would. God did.

lyrics

The Spotless

What a terrible and glorious thing you have done for us
Your wrath laid on your Son
Surely He took our pain and bore our suffering
As He died in our place for our sin
He was pierced for our transgression
And crushed for our iniquity
The punishment that brought us peace was on Him

We are hopeless, eternally separate from God
Children of wrath, deserving of death
We cannot get to Him as hard as we reach
No matter how much good we’ve done
But by your grace you made a way for peace
You took our place

We have a debt no one can pay
But you paid the price
You were rich, but became poor for us
That through your poverty we might be rich, and we are
You exchanged your heavenly crown for a crown of thorns
You became sin for us, though you had never sinned


This is love
While we were still sinners, You died for us
This is Jesus, the Lamb of God
Who takes away the sin of the world
For all who say, This is Jesus
Who cries, “Father forgive them,”
And, “It is finished!”
At the cross.
