When we believe in Jesus -
God doesn't count our sins.
He overlooks our failures;
He chooses to cheer our wins.
If we confess our wrongdoings,
God forgives and forgets.
All our sins are covered;
Christ is our righteousness!
The devil will bring up past sins,
He will accuse and blame;
But we are washed, we are clean -
We needn't live in shame.
We needn't let guilt cripple us,
Or be pulled down by its weight.
We're holy, pure and innocent;
God has wiped our slate.
Jesus is smiling down on us,
And we are truly blessed.
The Lord is our righteousness;
In His love it's safe to rest!
