My life
I sit back and look at my life
And how I've been there and I've done that so many times before
The Lord's never let me down
And I know that He won't start now
Some way, somehow He turned my life around
I remember a time in my life
That I didn't want to do nothing right
It was my way or the highway
I was all about the games that people play
Couldn't have told me nothing
Felt that I had it going on
And through it all I did not see that the enemy was steering me wrong
I was caught up in my pride and I didn't want to ask for help no way
Didn't want nobody to know that I was living my life so badly
I was still caught up in shame and yet my Savior came
And today I'm so happy to tell you that Jesus is His name
I sit back and look at my life
And how I've been there and I've done that so many times before
The Lord's never let me down
And I know that He won't start now
Some way, somehow He turned my life around
My life, I thought it meant just that, my life
I didn't want anybody to tell me not to do the things I wanted to
I felt that it was my life and I could do anything I wanted to
My Lord gave me freedom of choice and He allowed me to choose
Had no idea that this act of love would be what I would abuse
And I know that I let Him down but through my life He stayed around
Being the sinner that I was He should've just thrown me away
Instead He cleaned me up so I could worship everyday
I sit back and look at my life
And how I've been there and I've done that so many times before
The Lord's never let me down
And I know that He won't start now
Some way, somehow He turned my life around
My life was for you to see that God will set you free
I was lost and the world had me
Had me glorifying self and I couldn't see
That hell was my destiny if I didn't accept what Jesus gave to me
And I never knew the cost of seeing my sins on His back
But I know that no one else could've done that
No matter where you at in your life right now
Turn it on over to God He'll work it out right now
Give it all to Him like you gave the world
His mercy's for every man, woman, boy and girl
Don't worry that your life ain't been right
Cause the only way to get right is through Christ
I sit back and look at my life
And how I've been there and I've done that so many times before
The Lord's never let me down
And I know that He won't start now
Some way, somehow He turned my life around
