In the depths of our sin, God's righteousness shines
Through faith in Jesus, His love divine
The Law and the Prophets testify
Of the righteousness given to all who believe and abide

Through Jesus Christ, we find our place
In His love, we're made new
By faith, His righteousness we pursue

While we were sinners, Christ died for us
God's love demonstrated in the ultimate trust
The Lord is righteous in all His ways
His laws are right, guiding us through each day

In Christ, we find our strength and grace
God made Him sin for us to become
The righteousness of God, His will be done
