- Choose Messiah Betsy Carter 4:29
The great exchange: His life for mine, His righteousness for my sin…This song exalts the Sacrifice and Substitute for MY LIFE! It’s a thesis in the truth of what Christ did for us. Of course, it cannot begin to express all He means for us as Savior and Lord. Hallelujah! His tears have opened my eyes is the first line that came to me. I expressed it all in the past, finished tense, because He said it was!
LYRICS:
His humility made me worthy
His bruises made me strong
His righteousness cleansed all my lies
And His tears have opened my eyes
His purity made me holy
His pain produced my peace
The wound in His side gave me back my pride
And His tears have opened my eyes
And so I choose Messiah, Jesus Messiah
As the Substitute for my life
Yes I choose Messiah, Jesus Christ
For His tears have opened my eyes
His bondage in the grave freed me for glory
His death released my life
His crown of thorns soothed my troubled mind
And His tears have opened my eyes
And so I choose Messiah, Jesus Messiah
As the Sacrifice for my life
Yes I choose Messiah, Jesus Christ
For His tears have opened my eyes
And I praise Messiah, Jesus Messiah
He’s the great Healer, the Healer
The Healer of all the blinded eyes
Yes I praise Messiah, Jesus Christ
For His tears they have opened my eyes
I choose Messiah
