While We Were Still Sinners

Verse 1

I keep retracing where I stood

Bent and broken in the crowd

Reaching out for anything

That felt like solid ground

Chorus

While I was still a sinner

Christ died for me

Long before I ever knew

The weight of what He gave

While I was still unworthy

He laid His glory down

Mercy found me

When I was still a sinner

Verse 2

I picture the cross from far away

A hill I never climbed

The hands that held the stars

Now lifted up for mine

I did nothing to deserve

The love that came to find

Chorus

While I was still a sinner

Christ died for me

Long before I ever knew

The weight of what He gave

While I was still unworthy

He laid His glory down

Mercy found me

When I was still a sinner

Bridge

Oh the wonder of it all

Love that never waited

Oh the wonder of it all

Grace before I asked

He saw me from the grave

And chose me anyway

Chorus

While I was still a sinner

Christ died for me

Long before I ever knew

The weight of what He gave

While I was still unworthy

He laid His glory down

Mercy found me

When I was still a sinner
