Nothing new, just you and me
in the pages of the book
in the story of the people
sinning before God
Nothing new in our time
variations only on the theme
all sin at its base the same
estranging us from God
Nothing we do can compare
with the grace of Christ’s sacrifice
by his blood, washing us clean
by his rising, paradise
