Lyrics
Verse:
I wandered in the darkness, seeking light that I could not find
Searching for meaning, but answers evaded my mind
Though other surrounded me, in my soul I felt so alone
I cried out for help, unsure which way to go
Verse 2:
I stumbled down destructive paths, made choices I lived to regret
I hurt the ones who loved me through the selfish things I did
I lost my way in sin and shame, was drowning in guilt and strife
Felt like no one could save me from the wreckage of my life
Pre-chorus:
But in my hopeless state, Jesus reached out his hand
He picked me up and restored me, though I did not understand
How could he show such mercy after all the wrongs I’d done?
Amazing, relentless love, freely given to the prodigal one
Chorus:
I once was lost but now I'm found
My life He turned around
Hallelujah, praise the Lord!
I once was blind but now I see
By God's grace I'm set free
Hallelujah, praise the Lord!
Verse 3:
Then slowly through the darkness, I saw a faint glimmer of light
Drawing closer it grew brighter, till Christ's love shone warm and bright
In his arms I found acceptance, though I felt unworthy within
He washed away my guilt and shame and forgave all my sin
Chorus:
Verse 4:
My heart is filled with worship, for the first time fully known
At the cross I find belonging, I'm his and he's brought me home
No more lost and broken-hearted, he makes all things new again
I'm living now for Jesus, rejoicing freed from sin's chains
Chorus:
