there at the alter
is where we first met
and its there at the alter
that ill never forget
the tears of the lonely
is all i could cry
its there at the alter
i saw life passing by
there at the alter
He took all the pain
His arms draped around
as i hid in my shame
its there at the alter
i found a new way
and there in the room
on the floor i did lay
trembleing in fear
as i lay on the floor
the experience was new
but i still wanted more
it felt like nothing
i had ever been through
not a drug in this world
nor the things i would do
i asked for redemtion
as i crawled to my knees
the man that i saw
said He had paid all my fees
HE told me a story
of how he died long ago
and rose from the dead
so everyone would know
He said i was born a sinner
and my debts had been paid
and now in his glory
at the alter i laid
there at the alter
is where i saw grace
His glory around me
His love filled the place
there at the alter
i realized my sin
and its there at the alter
where i met my best friend
