You Saved Me
You Saved Me
You saved me now
You saved me forever more
You always had Your heart opened
to every sinner that darkened your door
Look at me, once again failing short to please
every night though that doesn't stop me
from getting down on my knees
because God you know my heart
I won't sin and the way of the world
keep us apart
because of that cross in the church
it reminds me just how much
You gave in return for me to have a chance
to be reborn....I look at this altar
thank you God my freedom means I can stand here
worship without fear
tears swell in these eyes
because....
You saved me now
You saved me forever more
You always had Your heart opened
to every sinner that darkened your door
peace I always find sitting in these empty church pews
I come here to clear my head
just feel at times closer to You
in the silence I can hear You talk
always guiding my heart
even though the choices I have maybe was hard
when I have listened
I have never looked back...never regretted
with God's approval
I have grown accustomed to a better living
because...
You saved me now
You saved me forever more
You always had Your heart opened
to every sinner that darkened your door
thank you my sweet Savior
when I go to places unknown
I will always know my calling
I know my eternal home
I walk life's battlefield
knowing I am never alone....
