alive

i was dead in my transgressions, wandering in sin, i went searching for redemption, down a road that had no end, i was walking through the fire, i was living on the run, with my flesh lost in desire, i was drowning in the flood, but god, rich in mercy, you came to save me, now i'm alive, but god, strong and mighty, you reached down for me, so i could rise, now i'm alive, i am far from being perfect, there are days that i regret, on this battlefield i struggle, with the lies that i have lived, i have fallen short of glory, i can't make it on my own, if you kept record of my past, i'd be sinking like a stone, but god, rich in mercy, you came to save me, now i'm alive, but god, strong and mighty, you reached down for me, so i could rise, now i'm breathing in, breathing out, i was in the grave, but god you called me out, now i'm breathing in, breathing out, i was in the grave, but god you called me out, but god, rich in mercy, you came to save me, now i'm alive, my god, strong and mighty, you reached down for me, so i could rise, now i'm breathing in, breathing out, i was in the grave, but god you called me out, now i'm breathing in, breathing out, i was in the grave, but god you called me out, now i'm alive
