I was close to turning back because
Satan tried to lead my soul astray
So close to turning back but God's
voice made me walk the right way

As my mind recalled the thoughts of
my past life
I could see the awful things
that I had done
But by God's power and loving grace
my sin's were pardoned
He bought them all on Calvary's
cross (God's Only Son)

The Lord has blessed me so I can't
repay Him
That's why I live my life for Him
and sing His praise
And thank Him so for being there
because I need Him
I'll live with Him in paradise some
happy day

I was seeing life so clear since my
faith has brought me near
To the cross where Christ had bled
and died for me
And it was hard for one to show how
God's only Son would go
When He could have called ten
thousand angels to set Him free
