lyrics

I used to be controlled by my sin
I was a slave
Living day to day but yet and still
Dead in the grave
Even in the church I was so
Totally depraved
I thought that I was safe
I didn't know I needed saving
Until the Holy Ghost
He spoke to me like
Quoth the raven
Saying, "Nevermore"
And broke the core
Of my enslavement
When the King of kings
Stomped the enemy
To the pavement
He cancelled out my debt
Through His blood
He made the payment
And that's why I praise Him
Through the preaching of the gospel
The dead are raising
Under heaven, no name that I know
So full of grace and
Power
I need Him every second, every minute, every hour
Cause Satan's like a lion on the prowl to devour
The sheep but God has given not the spirit of a coward
Satan's kingdom already fell
Like Babel's towers
It's a grave mistake when we think the battle's ours

It's not because it's His yo
He multiplies His army through water
Like Gizmo
Known for setting captives free
Come out your gitmo
I'm redeemed
What would I turn my back on Him fo'
I belong to the King and that's official
Go, go, go, go,
Go tell it on mountain
I used to be a lost sheep
Until the Shepherd found me
He leads me to the waters
Now I'm sipping from the fountain

Cause I’m free
In my heart I got peace
By my God I’ve been redeemed
And by the blood He bought me

If I rap about myself
I'd have to rap about depravity
And my inability
To understand the gravity
Of sin
That was filling me in
And brought calamity
To me and my closest of kin
Oh the insanity
Of thinking there was good in my soul
But low and behold
I'm so unworthy
I'm the lowest of lows
Even my good works
Are just some dirty old clothes
If had to lean on those
Then I'd know where I'd go
But praise God that's not the end of the story
Because of Christ I'm welcomed into His glory
All because of that cross
Oh so bloody and gory
That covered my cost
Yes He paid it all for me
And who am I
That he should die for me
As I wallowed in the dark
And shine His light on me
As for hope
He is my only
Shepherd of the sheep
Meaning that I follow His lead

Cause I’m free
In my heart I got peace
By my God I’ve been redeemed
And by the blood He bought me

Whosoever call upon the Lord they shall be saved
How shall they call on Him if they don't hear us say His name
Or believe us if we do not
Live what we proclaim
What if they see no change
Like we're claiming that we've made
That would mean that we are fake
And that we take His name in vain
That would be a grave mistake
And I'm guilty and ashamed
It is one that I can claim
But I'm so glad I can say
That I do not do the same
Cause that old me has been slain
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Everyday His mercy's newer
And I have no fear
Because my Shepherd is Yeshuah
Feeding me the bread of heaven
Growing steady as I'm chewing
I hear the word and do it
Cause if I say I'm His
Then my obedience will prove it
He made me what I am
And when I start to sink
He will take me by the hand
If anybody asks you anything about this man
Just tell them I've been purchased by the blood of the Lamb

Cause I’m free
In my heart I got peace
By my God I’ve been redeemed
And by the blood He bought me

That makes me His yo
He multiplies His army through water
Like Gizmo
Known for setting captives free
Come out your gitmo
I'm redeemed
What would I turn my back on Him fo'
I'm a child of the King and that's official
Go, go, go, go
I go tell it on mountain
I used to be a lost sheep
Until the Shepherd found me
He leads me to the fountains
Now I'm sipping from the fountain
