Verse 1
I was like Lazarus
No breath for these lungs to breathe
I was like Eve and Adam
Believing the lies of the enemy
I was like Cain to Able
Hurt and hateful and wandering
Captive to sin
Till you drew me in all over again
Chorus:
Where would I be if it wasn’t for mercy
Where would I be if it wasn’t for Grace
Where would I be if it wasn’t for the cross and a savior risin up from the dust
Where would I be if it wasn’t for mercy
Where would I be if it wasn’t for grace
Thank God that he paid such a high cost
The new me is lookin more like Jesus
Verse 2:
I was like Paul on the desert road
Till the Son gave light to my misery
I was in judgement throwing stones
Till you showed me life more abundantly
Now I say goodbye to old ways hello to new days
I’m walking free
Captive to sin
Till you drew me in
Bridge:
Far be it from me not to believe
I’d be wanderin’ without you
Far be it from me not to believe
It ain’t lost on me how you set me free
Left the old me in the rearview
It ain’t lost on me how you set me free
