I made a deal with the Devil so long ago
I signed away my heart, my mind and my soul
And everything that I ever need
Is waiting at my feet, so he said
Yeah that's what he said

I gave away what I thought was unvaluable
Things he wanted I thought were disposable
When I started to see things straight
He told me no it was much too late
And I bled
From the things that he said

And he said there's no turning back
There's no going home
Everything about you
Belongs to me, you're not your own
No, no

And so I wandered aimlessly through my life
Believing all the lies that haunted my mind
Then precious blood like a fountain came
When Jesus called me out by my name
And he said I love you
That's what He said

And he said you could always come back
I'll always take you home
There's nothing you could ever do
To change the love I have for you
It's true

Now I see the answer has always been there
To love the One who loved me first in my despair
'Cause freedom comes from the blood He shed
And life begins when you hear the things that He said
I love you
That's what He said
I love you
I love you
That's what He said
I love you too
That's what I said
