Even Me

I've heard it all my life, even had it memorized But it was only words to me, red letters on a page Just something people say, 'til it brought me to my knees Those words in John 3:16 For God so loved the world He gave, gave His only Son away A way to save a wretch like me, me the one who needed grace Grace to cover every stain, stains that He no longer sees It's amazing to believe that God so loved the world means even me How could He see my sins and forgive me even then Who would pay that kind of price, I've seen what mercy does He found me where I was, and He gave His life for mine For God so loved the world He gave, gave His only Son away A way to save a wretch like me, me the one who needed grace Grace to cover every stain, stains that He no longer sees It's amazing to believe that God so loved the world means even me Me with all my failures, me with all my shame It's the very reason Jesus came For God so loved the world He gave Gave His only Son away A way to save a wretch like me For God so loved the world He gave, gave His only Son away A way to save a wretch like me, me the one who needed grace Grace to cover every stain, stains that He no longer sees It's amazing to believe, it's amazing to believe That God so loved the world means even me God so loved the world means even me
