I am saved, I am saved
And oh, would you believe it?
All of the day
I felt his presence near me

I know they won't believe me, but
I've got favorite memories
I am saved, I am saved

And, oh, could you believe it?
You won't regret if you choose to believe it
Freedom, silence, always
All this darkness, always

Always 
Oh, oh

Darkness, always, they don't make no sense
Darkness, always
Away from me darlin'
