You came down from heaven’s throne
This Earth you formed was not your home
A love like this the world had never known
A crown of thorns to mock your name
Forgiveness fell upon your face
A love like this the world had never known
On the altar of our praise
Let there be no higher name
Jesus, Son of God
You laid down your perfect life
You are the sacrifice
Jesus, Son of God
You are Jesus, Son of God
You took our sin; you bore our shame
You rose to life; you defeated the grave
A love like this the world has never known
(Cause) you took our sin; you bore our shame
You rose to life; you defeated the grave
A love like this the world has never known
On the altar of our praise
Let there be no higher name
Jesus, Son of God
You laid down your perfect life
You are the sacrifice
Jesus, Son of God
You are Jesus, Son of God
Be lifted higher than all you've overcome
Your name be louder than any other song
There is no power that can come against your love
The cross was enough; the cross was enough
The cross was enough; the cross was enough
On the altar of our praise
Let there be no higher name
Jesus, Son of God
You laid down your perfect life
You are the sacrifice
Jesus, Son of God
You are Jesus, Son of God
I love this song! We sang it in church camp choir last summer and I met an amazing friend while learning this song. It has great memories attached to it and it's about my savior, Jesus Christ. Basically, this song couldn't be any more perfect.
