I was raised in a church you see
Saved at a crusade I wanted to be
I was lost then saved I believed
Rescued from sin I was relieved.
Marked as one of His very own
I walked away distant I grown
My life now sinful full blown
Empty hearted I feel all alone.
Comfortable with my decision for now
Making it alone I don’t know how
Being stubborn I still refuse to give in or bow
I’ll go it alone with out You for now.
I don’t know why I walked away from You
With out you oh Lord I am weak in all I do
This life alone I don’t want to go through
Your love I once felt because You I knew.
Come back in my life Jesus I need to be saved
In my life I no longer want to be depraved
To you I surrender all my rights waived
On my heart now God’s love forever engraved.
