You laid aside Your glory on the banks of the Jordan
G C D
And all for me You went down to the depths

You traded Heaven's borders for the chill of murky waters
G C D
And took the place of one condemned to death
{Chorus}
Am C D
That day John preached for man to draw near

but God it's You that came down here
Am C D
making shorter Man's road to You
Am C D
In Jordan's waters I'm being made new
{Verse 2}
D C
As You plunged into the deep in search of muddy pearls
G C D
Son of Man, You left behind Your robe

There You found me in the dark and as You rose out of the mire
G C D
This prodigal came up dressed in gold
{Verse 3}

When You rose out of that pale grave into a hot Judean sun
G C D
With a violence the heavens did divide

Father You came running, and You wrapped me in Your voice,
G C D
shouting "this son of mine was dead but now's alive!"
