lyrics

I'm no longer a slave to sin. That weights been lifted off of me. Never again will I bury myself in the shadows of the past. I've been set free, I've been redeemed. For who the Son sets free, he is free indeed. Since I was a child I was taught the same message, see no evil, speak no evil, hear no evil. Well I'm sorry mom and dad but I've done all of the above so now I have to pay the price. I was an evil man, I deserve this sentence. The crowd cries, thieves, crucify them. Now my body is broken, left here to die, hanging next to the one that they call the Messiah, Jesus Christ. But I rejoice in this suffering because of what that Man said. Because I believed in my heart and I confessed with my mouth that the Messiah was the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. And I said, O God, remember me when You’re in Your kingdom. And He looked at me and said, “Tonight you'll be with Me in paradise.” He knew my sins and my past. He knew I was born with a face towards hell. Born with a face towards hell, yet He took me anyway. I didn't deserve it but He's taking me anyway. So tonight I'll no longer be a thief, I'll be in paradise. Tonight I'll no longer be a thief.
