Newsflash Singers - Am I Today's Barabbas Lyrics

Because of Jesus
Barabbas was set free
Jesus was innocent
Barabbas was guilty
Jesus took his place
And died on that tree
Is Barabbas
A forerunner of me

Am I today's Barabbas
So guilty of sin
Deserving to die
But Jesus stepped in
Gladly took my place
Died for my disgrace
Am I today's Barabbas
Saved by Jesus ag'in

Because of man's sin
Jesus was crucified
Without innocent blood
Sinners would be denied
Jesus volunteered
Now I'm justified
Through Jesus' blood
I am now sanctified

Am I today's Barabbas
Deserving to die
Or that thief on the cross
That Jesus would not deny
He quickly forgave me
And quickly saved me
Though I was a sinner
It was for me
He would die
