He conquered death When he rose from the grave But why do his wounds From the cross still remain? The king of glory, his scars tell the story Of where he has been He passed through the doors That were locked within me Granting forgiveness and offering peace Others had told me I doubted their story, but now I believe Love made his wounds glorious Made his wounds glorious I see the nail marks I put my hands into his side Through his wounds made glorious His mercy pours out to us He's not ashamed His wounds still remain to testify My lord and my God He showed me that when he was pierced deep within His heart remained open to love and forgiveness The holes became holy, the scars sang of mercy So that we might live If God can bring good out of evil and sin He'll use our wounds if they're given to him Transforming our story From glory to glory as love enters in Come make my wounds glorious Make my wounds glorious Jesus come into the scars of my sin And fill them with light Through my wounds made glorious You lead me to holiness I'm not ashamed; my wounds still remain to testify The greater the sin, the brighter the light When love enters in, his mercy will shine Will you let him come in? Will you let his love come in? He'll make your wounds glorious Make your wounds glorious There is no sin that christ won't forgive That's why he died He'll use your brokenness to lead you to holiness Don't be ashamed Your wounds still remain to testify He made our wounds glorious Made our wounds glorious The broken body of Christ We offer our lives to heal the whole world Through our wounds made glorious His mercy pours out through us When we are raised, our wounds still remain to testify How Jesus came into our pain and changed our lives His wounds healed our lives For the sake of his sorrowful passion Have mercy on us and on the whole world
