011 Clothed in Christ

We are clothed in Christ
We are covered by the blood that makes us white
We are clothed in Christ
The Lamb our sacrifice

We’re crippled by the weight of shame
And try our best to hide
Afraid that He may call our name
And all will come to light

We wear the fig leaves for our clothes
But God alone provides
The righteous drip we can cannot sew
The Lamb of God who died

Stop hiding in your shame and fear
For we are not exposed
Receive the gospel loud and clear
In Him You’re fully clothed

So throw away your little leaves
And put on Jesus Christ
He took our shame so crippling
And clothed us with His life

We sew the finest fig leaves
Weaving Gucci for our souls
But still can’t hide the shame the mirror shows
But coming to our Father
He pulls out the finest robe
And clothes us with a garment of His own
He clothes us with a garment we can’t sew

We are clothed, in Christ
We are covered by the blood that makes us white
We are clothed, in Christ
The Lamb our sacrifice
The Lamb our sacrifice
