[Verse 1]
From the start you've held a place in my heart
A place that no one else could fill
But sin kept your spirit from working in me
I couldn't look at life honestly
Until the day my will gave away to the truth that I found in you
I never knew just how good it could be
To stand in your presence totally free
Now
[Chorus]
I'm forgiven
Now I have a reason for living
Jesus keeps giving and giving
Giving till my heart overflows
I'm forgiven
Now I have a reason for living
Jesus keeps giving and giving
Giving till my heart overflows
[Verse 2]
Now I can see me as a person who's free
Even when I slip and fall
You are the God who forgives and forgets
Now I want to give you my all
Cause
[Chorus]
I'm forgiven
Now I have a reason for living
Jesus keeps giving and giving
Giving till my heart overflows
I'm forgiven
Now I have a reason for living
Jesus keeps giving and giving
Giving till my heart overflows
[Bridge]
I know this love you placed in my heart
Is a love that will never depart
Sin brought me here to the end of my rope
But now you've given me a brand new hope
'Cause I'm forgiven
[Bridge]
I'm forgiven, I'm forgiven, I'm forgiven
I'm forgiven, I'm forgiven, I'm forgiven
[Chorus]
I'm forgiven
Now I have a reason for living
Jesus keeps giving and giving
Giving till my heart overflows (My heart overflows)
I'm forgiven
Now I have a reason for living
Jesus keeps giving and giving
Giving till my heart overflows (My heart overflows)
[Chorus]
I'm forgiven
Now I have a reason for living
Jesus keeps giving and giving
Giving till my heart overflows (My heart overflows)
I'm forgiven
Now I have a reason for living
Jesus keeps giving and giving
Giving till my heart overflows
