What Could Have Been

When I think about what God has done for me,

When I step back and really start to think,

I start trembling; Oh, I can't believe.

Amazing grace would save a wretch like me.

I’m nothing that’s of value to a king.

Oh, I can’t believe that He’d die for me.

Yeah, I’m so glad He saved my soul,

Cause if he didn’t all I’d know is

Darkness, no source of light.

Cages I built through my life

Would capture me and throw away the prison key.

Chaos would wrestle my mind.

Helpless, I’d give up the fight.

Without Him, I’d be left here in my sin.

Yeah, that’s what could have been.

That's what could have been.

 

And if Jesus never stepped down from his throne,

Then I’d be left for dead, lost, and alone.

I’d be drenched in shame. I’d be so afraid.

 

Cause if there’s no blood, if there’s no cross,

Then I’d be forced to pay the cost for

 

Darkness, no source of light.

Cages I built through this life

Would capture me and throw away the prison key.

Chaos would wrestle my mind.

Helpless, I’d give up the fight.

Without Him, I’d be left here in my sin.

Yeah, that’s what could have been.

 

That’s not what happened!

That’s not how the story ends!

No, no, no!

 

Jesus broke through the dark.

The earth shook.

The doors were unlocked.

He stormed the gates of hell

And set this prisoner free.

My Savior ransomed my life.

My Hero, He won the fight.

Without Him, I’d be left here in my sin.

Praise God that's not how the story ends,

Cause that’s what Jesus did!

Oh, Oh, That’s what Jesus did!

Oh, Oh, That’s what Jesus did!

Oh, Oh, That’s what Jesus did!

Oh, Oh, That’s what Jesus did!
