I am nothing more but guilty of disgrace
Yet you came and took my place

Tormented, mocked, and beaten, you bled
I am ashamed for what all my sins have led

For all the times that I have committed a sin
I should’ve received the price of the end

But you saved me from myself
From the decreasing of my spiritual health

I am free from sinning
But I know that my life is just the beginning

I am nothing more but a zero
While Jesus you are a hero
