lyrics

I am one of those, at the table not invited,
And, to all here at the feast, it’s very plain;
I cannot hide in etiquette or conversation,
But Christ himself sent word to me and so I came.

I am one of those who was dead and fully buried,
And I still bear every stigma of decay;
There is no way I can hide just what I’ve been through,
‘Cause when Jesus called, I came fresh from the grave.

Though the world may number me among the foolish,
I think Jesus Christ is all they need to know,
Jesus suffered and paid blood to buy the lowest of the low.
Hallelujah! Amen! That’s me! Yes, I am one of those!

I am one of those, who was a leper and contagious,
The deformities and scars I have today;
Yet while I was vile with sickness, Jesus loved me,
And he healed, restored, and, through and through, remade.

I am one of those who was doomed to death in prison,
And I’ve done more evil things than I could say;
Jesus broke inside and there unlocked my shackles,
And, to set me free, he died and took my place.

Though the world may number me among the foolish,
I think Jesus Christ is all they need to know,
Jesus suffered and paid blood to buy the lowest of the low.
Hallelujah! Amen! That’s me! Yes, I am one of those!

I am one of those, who is hard to love and ugly,
Self-righteous critical religion was my stain.
So I ran to Christ to wash and be discovered;
Jesus called me out and he covered up my shame.

Though the world may number me among the foolish,
Who think Jesus Christ is all they need to know,
Jesus suffered and paid blood to buy the lowest of the low.
Hallelujah! Amen! That’s me! Yes, I am one of those!
