Funeral

Dearly beloved We're gathered here today to pay our last respects To the guilt and regret that had me buried in my shame See, I was so hopeless I stopped making plans Convinced my best was behind me The past would define me Don't deserve a second chance Then I met You And everything changed I met You And I'll never be the same So, I'm throwing a funeral, funeral for the old me I'm throwing a funeral, funeral for who I used to be The new has come, the old is gone Praise the Lord, I'm moving on I'm throwing a funeral, funeral for the old me All that was broken has now been redeemed I was the captive, the sinner, the beggar, the prisoner But now I'm set free Because of You My soul has been saved Because of You That old life's in the grave And, I'm throwing a funeral, funeral for the old me I'm throwing a funeral, funeral for who I used to be The new has come, the old is gone Praise the Lord, I'm moving on I'm throwing a funeral, funeral for the old me I'm saying goodbye to who I've been I'm saying goodbye to who I've been I'm saying goodbye, never going back again I'm saying goodbye Now, I don't know when it's coming But when my time runs out I'll be happy to leave, yeah 'cause it won't be me They're laying in the ground I'll be with you Standing in the sun I'll be with you So, until that day comes I'm throwing a funeral, funeral for the old me I'm throwing a funeral, funeral for who I used to be The new has come the old is gone Praise the Lord I'm moving on I'm throwing a funeral, funeral for the old me I'm throwing a funeral, funeral for the old me I'm throwing a funeral, funeral for the old me
