Is set on you
My God, You are enough

Your Blood, Your Grace
Has taken all my shame
My Heart is fixed on you

I will leave behind
The mistakes I've made
I am running to your grace
I will lift my eyes
With my hands up to the sky
I am chasing after you

Cause you're making me new
Oh oh, Oh oh
You're making me new
Oh oh, Oh oh
Jesus, it's You

And on that day you call me away
I'll walk on streets of gold

And I'll hear a choir of every angel sing
Holy is the Lord, holy is the Lord
