Lyrics

Abandoned, abused
I?ve been twisted, I?ve been torn
It seems I?ve been in trouble
Since the moment I was born
I was a loveless child
Lord, the heartache never ceased
But when the morning sun comes rising
I will be released

I?ve seen a lot of sinners
And I?ve seen a lot of saints
There ain?t no use pretending
?Cause an angel, no I ain?t
They say my blood runs cold
I made mistakes, to say the least
But when the morning sun comes rising
I will be released

I?ve been tried, I?ve been convicted
I?ve be held without parole
Lord knows I sold my body
But I never sold my soul
That?s why these chains can?t hold me down
I?ve been saved by my belief
That a better place is callin?
And I will be released

It?s time to face the waters
To brave the mighty flood
I hear the drummers drummin?
They?re poundin? for my blood
And yet my heart is singing
Oh I finally found everlasting peace
A Higher Judge has ruled now
And I have been released.
