U Saved Me

True stories, what

Miracles, what

True blessings, what

All because of love

True stories, what

Miracles, what

True blessings, what

I was ridin' in my car one day

In the express lane, rollin' on the freeway

And suddenly the phone rings

Then I reached down beside me

Then I looked on the floor, felt on the back seat

See, I was drinkin' while I was drivin'

Never thinkin' 'bout what I was doin'

I turned around and before I knew it

Here comes this truck now

The doctors said, "I don't think he's gonna make it"

Family said, "Make the funeral arrangements

Unplug the machine, he's gone now"

Then told my wife to be strong now

Then a small voice said unto me

"If you promise to stop drinkin'"

I surrendered on that day

Now for 10 years I've been straight

U saved me (Whoa)

U saved me (U saved me)

U saved me (Whoa)

U saved me (Thank you, Jesus)

Gave me a second chance (Oh, no)

U saved me (Thank you, Jesus)

U saved me (Whoa, whoa)

U saved me

U saved me

Now I've been sittin' in this chair

Waiting on the phone to ring

Prayin' up to God

That someone would call me with a job openin'

'Cause it's been so hard for me

Month to month, strugglin' to eat

But still there was no answer, no answer

I stopped believin' in his words and got so mad at him

And when somebody said, "God's good"

I just laughed at 'em, oh, yeah

But in the nick of time His blessing's rained on me

By His grace, the phone ring

A lady said, "We're hirin' and that's when I knew"

U saved me (Saved)

U saved me (Oh, yeah)

U saved me (U saved me)

U saved me (Thank you, Jesus)

Gave me a second chance (Second chance)

U saved me (Whoa)

U saved me (Whoa, no)

U saved me (Thank you)

U saved me

Now I was 18 out there on the block, selling drugs

With a gun at my waist, and for people I had no love

See, the streets was my home, and

Family and friends were all gone

Had no one to trust

And deep inside I was all alone

And a deal went bad one day

And it was enough to pause me

I was shot four times and before I knew it

I was on my knees

Blood pushin' out my body, my heart's beatin' fast

I don't know what I'ma do, I don't think I'm gonna last

Then I began to flash back on the things I've done in my past

Then I heard a small voice that said to me

"I'll give you peace if you believe"

I accepted Christ that day

Hallelujah, now I'm free

U saved me (Saved me)

U saved me (Saved me)

U saved me (Whoa)

U saved me (Gave me)

Gave me a second chance (And I wanna thank)

U saved me (Thank you, thank you)

U saved me (Whoa, whoa)

U saved me

U saved me

I was in the aisle of a grocery store

With a pain in my chest and I'm wonderin'

Where did it come from (I got tested)

And the results came back

And the doctor said, "I'm sorry, but you've got cancer"

I could not believe it

So I called up my mama to clam my nerves

(Mama)

She got down on her knees

(Mama)

She said a prayer for me

(Mama)

Said, just keep on thankin' Jesus

(Mama)

He'll give you all you need

(Thank you, Jesus)

Now that was 5 years ago

(Thank you, Jesus)

I don't have that pain no more

(Thank you, Jesus)

Doc said, "You can go home"

(Thank you, Jesus)

'Cause all your cancer's gone

U saved me (Said U saved me)

U saved me

U saved me (No, no)

U saved me (U saved me)

Gave me a second chance

(And I'm so glad, I'm so glad, I'm so glad that)

U saved me

U saved me (U saved me)

U saved me (Just when I was goin' left)

U saved me

When I was goin' left

You stirred me right

Goes all the way down

You lift me up all night

And though you saw my thoughts

You forgave me for all my sins

And I would call on you

Then you let me live

And I had nothin' to lose

And so I tried you

And now I'm glad I did

'Cause you are the truth

U saved me ('Cause U saved me)

U saved me (Whoa, U saved me)

U saved me (U saved)

U saved me (Saved)

Gave me a second chance (Second chance, oh, no)

U saved me (Hallelujah)

U saved me (Oh)

U saved me (Saved me)

U saved me (Whoa, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, oh)

U saved me (U saved)

U saved me (Saved)

U saved me (You gave me a)

Gave me a second chance (It was Thy grace)

U saved me (U saved me)

U saved me (I'm so thankful)

U saved me (That you looked down on me)

U saved me (You saw me standin' there, hey)

U saved me (I was at the of my road, yeah)

U saved me (With nowhere to go)

U saved me (Then you gave me)

Gave me a second chance (I was down and out too)

(Yes, I was)

U saved me (I was doin' drugs too)

(Yes, I was)

U saved me (I was runnin' streets, hey)

U saved me (Never felt love till U saved me)

U saved me (I was gangbangin' till U saved me)

U saved me (Wildin' out till U saved me)

U saved me (On my dyin' bed)

U saved me (You stepped in, ooh)

Gave me a second chance

U saved me

U saved me

U saved me
