I'll never understand
Why He saw a piece of clay
And said, "I want it, I'll use it"
The greatest mystery
Is somehow in spite of me
He said, "I'm gonna love you"
He took me in His arms
Said, "This child belongs to me"
He placed me in His Kingdom
Now I live like royalty

It's not because of what I am
Not because of what I've done
But because of Whose I am

My Father is Lord of everything
From here beyond forever
He's given me His name
Said if I'll ask anything
He'd gladly give it

He put a robe upon my back
He put a ring upon my hand
Said the riches of heaven were all mine
It's not because of what I am
Not because of what I've done
But because He first loved me
His grace has set me free
His blood is flowing through my veins
I'm adopted by the King
It's because of Whose I am
