You plead my cause...

I heard this song for the first time today.  The lyrics spoke deeply to my heart.  First, here is the story behind this song:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4W1_02y3XMY.  Then, please listen to this:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wt5X91ciE6Y.  Do we really know what it means to live free...from the depths of our souls?

How Can it be?

Songwriters:

I am guilty
Ashamed of what I've done, what I've become
These hands are dirty
I dare not lift them up to the Holy one

You plead my cause
You right my wrongs
You break my chains
You overcome
You gave Your life
To give me mine
You say that I am free
How can it be
How can it be

I've been hiding
Afraid I've let you down, inside I doubt
That You still love me
But in Your eyes there's only grace now

Though I fall, You can make me new
From this death I will rise with You
Oh the grace reaching out for me
How can it be
How can it be

You say that I am free
How can it be
How can it be
