YOU SAVED ME
(C.D./Ray Lenard/918) 827-2452
18875 South Pickett Road; Mounds, Oklahoma 74047
v1
The day that You saved me, fear blinded my eyes
Darkness had claimed me with truth-shattered lies
I was down to a crawl, down on my knees
Devoid of a savior with no chance for reprieve.
You took my hand and said, ?What have you paid?
All that you own won?t atone for one sin made
Come walk with me,? You said to my heart
?The time has come for the healing to start?.
Chorus:
You saved me from myself
You weren?t afraid to wade beyond the sin I?d dealt
You gave me the reason to believe
You gave me the courage to see
The day that You saved me You touched my heart
And You gave my faith a brand new place to start
The day that You saved me with Your Lovelight in the dark.
v2
The day that You saved me, You opened my eyes
The truth that You gave me shattered the lies
It?s You I now call, down on my knees
In the name of the Savior, I beg for Your reprieve.
You take my hand and You say, ?He has paid
For one and for all, He died for all sins made
Come walk with me,? You say to my heart
?The time has come for the healing to start.?
Chorus:
You save me from myself
You aren?t afraid to wade beyond the sin I?ve dealt
You give me the reason to believe
You give me the courage to see
The day that You saved me You touched my heart
And You gave my faith a brand new place to start
The day that You saved me with Your Lovelight in the dark.
Add to FINAL Chorus:
The day that You saved me and made the demons depart
The day that You saved me with Your Lovelight in the dark.
