My Advocate

When the condemnation comes, when the enemy attacks
When the accusations gather like a storm
I remember what You've done, You remind me who I am
And I claim the victory Your blood has won

Oh, You are my righteousness
You rush to my defense
You are my advocate
How You fight for me and
Oh, You've never failed me yet
Your promises are yes
You are my advocate
How You fight for me, Lord

No, I won't accept defeat at the hands of guilt and shame
Or these burdens that I've carried far too long
All of Satan's empty threats have been conquered by the cross
You declare me innocent before the throne
And I claim the victory Your blood has won

Oh, You are my righteousness
You rush to my defense
You are my advocate
How You fight for me and
Oh, You've never failed me yet
Your promises are yes
You are my advocate
How You fight for me, Lord

Hallelujah, You champion my cause
Hallelujah, You right my every wrong
Hallelujah, who could ever stand against
Jesus Christ the Lamb of God, my advocate
Hallelujah, You champion my cause
Hallelujah, You right my every wrong
Hallelujah, who could ever stand against
Jesus Christ the Lamb of God, my advocate

Oh, You are my righteousness
You rush to my defense
You are my advocate
How You fight for me and
Oh, You've never failed me yet
Your promises are yes
You are my advocate
How You fight for me, Lord
How You fight for me, Lord
How You fight for me
