Lyrics
Verse 1
I was broken, I was lost in the night,
Chasin' shadows, couldn't find the light.
Tears on my pillow, pain I couldn't hide,
But You reached down and pulled me to the other side.
Pre-Chorus
You took the pieces of my shattered soul,
Breathed Your mercy, and You made me whole.
Chorus
Lord, You changed me (oh yes, You did),
Took my heart and rearranged me.
Chains fell off when You claimed me,
I'll never be the same -- Lord, You changed me.
Verse 2
I was blinded, walkin' in my pride,
Tryna fill the void with things that never satisfied.
But Your love came through, washed me clean inside,
Now I stand in freedom with my hands lifted high.
Pre-Chorus
I don't deserve it, but You gave me grace,
Now I see Your glory every time I seek Your face.
Chorus
Lord, You changed me (oh yes, You did),
Took my heart and rearranged me.
Chains fell off when You claimed me,
I'll never be the same -- Lord, You changed me.

Final Chorus - big with harmonies
Lord, You changed me, oh You saved me,
Turned my darkness into victory.
Chains fell off when You claimed me,
I'll never be the same -- Lord, You changed me.

Lord, You changed me.
