The Memories I Keep
That Day
Whenever I start to get depressed
I close my eyes and pray
And a memory that was blessed
Reminds me of “that day”
There was a time I felt alone
And could no longer cope
A life of drink and getting stoned
With very little hope
How bad I wanted it to end
The pain I felt inside
And if it weren't for a friend
“That day” I might have died
But I asked this friend to forgive me
And He washed away my sin
And with His blood I'm set free
And now I'm born again
To some it may seem strange
They may never understand
How Jesus has my life arranged
And now leads me by the hand
I might get made fun of
Or lose a friend or two
But God is full of lasting love
And “that day” is proof it's true
So if you ever start feeling sad
Just bow your head and pray
And you too will be so glad
That Jesus saved you on “that day”
I close my eyes and pray
And a memory that was blessed
Reminds me of “that day”
There was a time I felt alone
And could no longer cope
A life of drink and getting stoned
With very little hope
How bad I wanted it to end
The pain I felt inside
And if it weren't for a friend
“That day” I might have died
But I asked this friend to forgive me
And He washed away my sin
And with His blood I'm set free
And now I'm born again
To some it may seem strange
They may never understand
How Jesus has my life arranged
And now leads me by the hand
I might get made fun of
Or lose a friend or two
But God is full of lasting love
And “that day” is proof it's true
So if you ever start feeling sad
Just bow your head and pray
And you too will be so glad
That Jesus saved you on “that day”
