I’ve tried drugs
It made me high
I felt like I was soaring through the sky
But when I came down
Reality hit
Pain and misery came back again
I’ve tried drinking to take the pain away
It worked for a while in such a calming haze
But when the haze left
I felt worse than before
In order to feel better
I must keep drinking more
Then I thought that I was in love
So I started sleeping around
Maybe that’ll cheer me up when I’m feeling down
In the moment I actually felt better
But when it was over
I felt worse than ever
Then I thought “Church”
Please I wouldn’t dare
A sinner like me wouldn’t ever step foot in there
But then I felt something
Like someone was calling
Maybe, just maybe, I could finally be free
So I went in
But it didn’t apply to me
Forgiveness and love was all that was being preached
For a dirty worthless person
A sinner such as me
Things like forgiveness are only in my dreams
Then He said “Every saint was a sinner. Redemption is for you and me Jesus paid it all to set everyone free.”
Then the word love came to mind again
But it’s a different kind of love
The kind that saves me from sin
So I tried Jesus and he set me free
With his saving grace I have been redeemed
With his red blood He washed away my sins
Now I have love and happiness again
No more misery
No more pain
He gave me my mind back and I’m completely sane
So won’t you meet Jesus?
Just give him a try
He’ll change your heart and save your life
