Lyrics
Lord and Master Christian/Inspirational
VERSE 1
Born into a Christian family, I was cared for and adored.
Baptized as a baby, dedicated to the Lord.
Taught to read my bible, go to church on Sunday morn,
But when I finally took your hand, I felt I'd been reborn.
CHORUS
You have always been my Savior and I've counted on your grace,
But now you are the Lord and Master of my days.
You've always been my Savior and I've known you from the start,
But now you are the Lord and Master of my heart.
VERSE 2
I read about you now and then, I followed when I could
And when your will agreed with mine, I did just what I should.
But I never gave you all I had, I never gave up control.
I didn't believe you'd need my heart, when you already had my soul.
CHORUS
You have always been my Savior and I've counted on your grace,
But now you are the Lord and Master of my days.
You've always been my Savior and I've known you from the start,
But now you are the Lord and Master of my heart.
BRIDGE
Jesus you kept hounding me until I heard your mighty word.
I believed in you as Savior, now I'll follow you as Lord.
CHORUS
You have always been my Savior and I've counted on your grace,
But now you are the Lord and Master of my days.
You've always been my Savior and I've known you from the start,
But now you are the Lord and Master of my heart.
Of my heart.
