This changes everything

I mean, Christ is to who my praises ring

He's the living water and the bread of life

That he came down and died so our lies and our sin

Would not condemn us, but so that we could live again

And this changes everything

I mean, Christ changed my music taste

He made love and forgiveness out of my pride and my hate

And he changed my friend selection

With His perfect resurrection

But did he really change me?

And this is the common misconception

That yeah, Christ died and was resurrected

And he took my sins, and your sins, and his and hers

And he saved us from death, but you can never be sure

And this is the common misconception

That even though Christ saved us when he resurrected

That we have to live a life of ultimate perfection

Or separation will take its place again

We view salvation as a temporary trend

So, right now, i need you to take every lie Satan has whispered in your ear

I need you to forget them so you can truly hear what I'm about to say

Christ. Changes. Everything

Not just your best friends or your favorite bands

He changes your very soul with the nails that pierced his feet and his hands

He changes what you're like

Who you are

Not your clothes

Not your cars,

He made the stars

Yet he took our scars

And we find it so bizarre

That scars can go away

We think that grace can't cover our mistakes

And how selfish of us to think that way

Like we even deserved it in the first place

But, according to Ephesians 2:8, it is by God we are saved

It is through His grace, and his son who has raised

We are saved! We are saved!

We should be shouting it from the mountains!

We are saved!

Christ is risen, our sins are now paid

He conquered the grave

He freed the enslaved

Through Him we're eternal, and forever He reigns

Satan's been slain, God's glory is praised

Singing "Holy! Holy! He's beaten the grave!"

Yet….

We continue to stain

His perfect, matchless, glorious name

By living lives of mediocrity

By living a life full of shame

By living a life with one foot in the water

Where we starve our souls and leave our hearts depraved of the father

Ashamed to come to him

For we see ourselves as worthless scoffers, with nothing to offer

My friend, That is one of Satan's deceptions

You are made whole through Christ's resurrection

And i mean, sure, we're not perfect

But that's why He had to be

Blameless he took our sins so our souls could be set free

And all we need is the faith of a seed

To let Christ take ahold and turn our faiths into trees

But it's all up to you

God wants your love for Him to be so strong, faithful and true

So you have to choose!

You can't halfway dive off a diving board

You can't, half-hit a home run to add points to your score

It's all or nothing

You're hot or you're cold

You were bought at a price

But you decide to be sold

Christ really does change everything

He can change you too, but you have to choose

You need to make the choice

To let Him save you from death

And watch as angels rejoice
