Lyrics
[02:29.56
[02:31.31
[02:33.76
[02:37.24
[02:41.66
I've been made free
[02:46.64
[02:49.30
Paid a price
For my life
And all that was wrong
His love made it right
Now what greater sign
Can any man show
That know with his own blood
He made me whole
He
Ive been made free
If my sins had their way
I never would have made it
With a debt i just couldn't afford to pay
He came and saved me
[03:54.95
God said go ahead because you're covered by me awesome
Awesome powerful blood
Though i
I should've been dead
And never kept alive
God's grace and his mercy
Were on every side
When it looks like i can't
God says i can
And he won't let me fall
In the enemy's hand
I'm just glad to know that god saved me
His grace and his mercy
They watched over me all night long
[04:50.45
For the lord that was on my side
[07:25.86
Listen i got some testimonies listen
Just like ninevah that was headed for destruction god stepped in and he said
[05:15.73
You gonna live and you won't see the day of destruction
Ooh ooh ooh
Just like daniel who was condemned to the lion's den god said
You're gonna live
you're gonna live yeah
Just like david who was dearly beloved inspite of god said
[05:42.40
let's talk about you
If you be honest with yourself tonight
If it hadn't been for the grace of god
You would've been
You could've been
[05:43.39
To the liar
To the cheater
To the deciever
Even to the believer
There is therefore no condemnation to them that are in christ jesus
Yeah yeah
Some of ya'll got it twisted
If it hadn't been for god
[07:27.65
You wouldn't have made it
Don't get confused about who kept you
[07:20.09
When my haters said that i wouldn't
I thought we'd never get out of the poor house but
I thought we'd never see the white house but im claiming it
And if you be honest
He's been over your house
Every grateful heart just bless his name
Who delivered you
Be honest about it
Who kept you
Come on and testify who brought you
Just shout god did it
Point to heaven and give him glory
Come on and testify
One more time
If your praise is ringing say
Hey yeah yeah
God did it
