Marks Of The Mission Lyrics
(Charles Billingsley/Dave Clark/Don Koch )
It wasn't that far from where your life began To where you laid it down A man on a mission what we couldn't see then We can see it now I can only imagine the look in Your Father's eyes When you came back home And said look at the scars in my hands and my side I just wanted you to know
CHORUS I These are the marks of the mission These are the proof of all I've been through The evidence of sin forgiven All that I have I offer to you I followed the call wherever it led me It was worth every step of the way I've come through the dark Bearing the marks of the mission
No, I wasn't there to see them drive the nails But yet I still believe The blood of redemption He so willingly shed Was enough for me Lord I know when You see me You look past the pain that I've caused To a heart that's changed If I asked You if my sins were worth what it cost I know just what You will say
CHORUS I
BRIDGE Someday I'll walk down golden streets And I'll talk with the saints whose faith inspired me Then maybe I will understand We are the reason for the scars in your hands
CHORUS II We are the marks of the mission We are the proof of all you've been through The evidence of sin forgiven All that we have we offer to you We followed the call wherever it led us It was worth every step of the way We've come through the dark Bearing the marks of the mission
