Newsflash Singers - Scars of Love Lyrics

I came down to man
By way of Bethlehem
In a body prepared for me
I came with a plan
To save fallen man
That would lead me
To Calvary's tree
I walked upon earth
In its grime and dirt
To tell of heaven above
But they wouldn't believe me
And Judas deceived me
And they gave me
These scars of love

There are scars in my hands
And scars on my feet
And scars upon my head
There are scars on my back
Where they beat me with whips
Until I was almost dead
When I finally died
They pierced my side
And gave me that final scar
But these scars of love
Opened heaven above
And today that's where they are

These scars that I wear
Man inflicted down there
But I knew that it had to be
Man's sin must be paid
A sacrifice made
And that sacrifice
Had to be me
So I gladly shed
The blood that I bled
To rescue man from the grave
And the scars I display
You will see there someday
The only way man could be saved
