Way before I ever was a Christian 
I went to church all my life
Yo, but listen 
Way before I was a true convert
God was loving me
Before I could do my dirt 
Never for a second 
Did He think of second guessing
His election 
The proof is in the way
He came and paid for indiscretions 
I committed 
With commitment 
Cause I sinned with no conviction 
And I dare not call it slipping 
Cause I wanted nothing different 
Often I am horrified
Thinking of my war with God
Chasing lusts, adoring pride
Something like a whorish life
Sin would open doors, invite me in
And I would go inside
And I ain't care about the consequence
I just enjoyed the ride
Living with that wickedness 
I'm nothing less than mortified
And if I died while in that sin
God would still be glorified 
But there before the grace of God
I've been redeemed and sanctified
I praise Him and I thank Him, I
Live to join Him in the sky

I'm leaning on the Lord who sits on High
I Love the Lord that He heard my cry
He loved me first and I don't know why
He proved it when He sent His Son to die
And now I have Life
From the Lord who sits on High
I Love the Lord that He heard my cry
He loved me first and I don't know why
He proved it when He sent His Son to die
And now I have Life

I've spent a lot time here 
Working on my craft 
I should've spent that time
More focused on my act 
I can't say I wasn't hypocriting 
On Sunday I was Holy
But on Monday I would hit the switch
Plot a move and hit the lick
Call the crew and hit the strip
Bought the 'xclu and took a hit
Fought a few and split a lip
And even if it took a bit
Of time 
I would call your boo and slide on through to hit the chick 
A sinful genius in my ignorance 
And I ain't bragging 
I'm lamenting
Broken and I'm venting 
I'm yearning for forgiveness 
From the people who are victims
Most of all from my God
Against whom I was sinning 
I'm needing Him to grant me repentance 
Lord, have mercy on me
Please kill the pervert in me
Create in me a clean heart
I need You working in me
So I can bask in your glory
On the path set before me
Let not Your wrath be my story 
End
Hold me close, and draw me in
And if I ever fall again
I pray you catch me by the hand  
And keep me in your presence 
Through the blessing of the Man 
Who was born of a virgin
In the town of Bethlehem 
Whenever I'm in trouble 
I can now look for Him
Because there's nothing more sufficient 
Than the Fisher of all fishers 
Lord, I bow in full submission 
Give me the ears so I can listen 
Help my vision  
By Your light 
I'll let it glisten 
In the dark I'm prone to stumbling
My life is like a shadow
Of Satan's kingdom crumbling
I'm broken and I need you
Cause if I'm in the flesh 
There is no hope for me to please You
I need Your righteousness 
I pray You work it so it bleeds through 
And saturates my living
So when finished I can see you
So many, they don't get it
It's a gift that we believe You
Regenerated by Your Spirit 
Otherwise, we will not hear it
Scoffing in our sin 
Until the day of Your appearance 
Cause without Your intervention
There's no fear or no revering 
Blessed are the ones You choose 
And drag and draw them nearer 
What kind of love it takes 
To send Your Son for a sinner 
From what I'm understanding 
It's a love that's infinite 
From the ever present God
Who's never gone for a minute 
In the midst of my rebellion 
And my failure 
You were there 
How dare a person curse You
Screaming like You are unfair
With the very breath 
You bless them with
Your mercy's loud and clear
We act as if You're weak and powerless 
But Au Contraire 
You are the Omni-potent 
Triple holy 
God of everywhere 
Eternal from the past
To beyond the atmosphere  
I pray You come back fast
And take Your bride from out of here
Your mercy's everlasting 
And my hands are in the air

I'm leaning on the Lord who sits on High
I Love the Lord that He heard my cry
He loved me first and I don't know why
He proved it when He sent His Son to die
And now I have Life
From the Lord who sits on High
I Love the Lord that He heard my cry
He loved me first and I don't know why
He proved it when He sent His Son to die
And now I have Life
More abundantly 
What a wonder He would come for me
Amazing grace don't it sound so sweet
I was in the dark but now I see
Because He's the Light
Of the world and He heard my cry
And pitied every groan
As I live and my troubles rise  
His grace will lead me home
To eternal life
