Jesus Dropped The Charges
(recorded by The O'Neal Twins and also Gospel Music Workshop of America (GMWA) Mass Choir)
Verse 1:
I was guilty (guilty)
of all the charges (charges),
doomed and disgraced,
but Jesus (Jesus)
with His special love (special love)
saved me by His grace;
He pleaded (pleaded)
and He pleaded (pleaded)
He pleaded my case.
Chorus 1:
Jesus dropped the charges,
Jesus dropped the charges,
and now I'm saved through grace and faith.
Verse 2:
I was guilty (guilty)
for oh so long (so long)
lived in sin too long,
but Jesus (Jesus)
with His special love (special love)
reached out with His arms so strong;
He picked me (picked me up),
turned me around (turned me around)
gave me a brand new song.
Chorus 2:
Jesus dropped the charges,
Jesus dropped the charges,
and to Him I belong.
Verse 3:
If they remember (remember)
and remember (remember)
some of the things I've done,
but Jesus (Jesus)
with His special love (special love)
forgave me from everyone;
He put me (put me)
on the right road (right road)
lifted my heavy load.
Chorus 3:
Jesus dropped the charges,
Jesus dropped the charges,
now I'm free down in my soul.
Bridge:
He dropped the charges,
Jesus dropped the charges,
(although I was wrong).
He dropped the charges,
Jesus dropped the charges,
(showed me right from wrong).
He dropped the charges,
Jesus dropped the charges,
(and cast them all away);
at Calvary I heard Him say,
at Calvary I heard Him say,
at Calvary I heard Him say,
"case dismissed, case dismissed,
saved by grace".
Vamp:
He dropped the charges,
Jesus dropped the charges.
