Verse 1 (Tedashii):
I see kids,
Wildin’ out/they pops was out/I see it like a flash back/
That empty life/now in Christ, I finally got my Dad back/
God was that He snatched me back He got me off that fast track/
Of chasing dreams and manish things/like power, pleasure, and respect/
Taught me that a selfish view, never was a healthy view/
Here’s some help for you who struggle too, living past that/
Selfish gain or selfless aim, hey baby they gone clash black/
Worldly wisdom or scripture, it ain’t but one that has facts/
Tried it all, all alone, but found that I was handicapped/
Strength I lacked/abused by this world you can have it back/
See the fact remains I was changed when I heard His name/
I know He’s real/and I’ll never be the same/
Hook (G.P.):
I’m in love with one hand in the sky/
I’m looking at the the cross with both of my eyes/
I know I was born into sin/but now I’m in Christ yes I’m born again/
I know, I know, that Jesus lives/
And I know, I know He is my King/
And that’s why, that’s why I’ll always sing/Jesus
Thank you for saving my life/
uh-oh, uh-oh-uhoh, uh-oh/uh-oh, uh-oh-uhoh, uh-oh/
uh-oh, uh-oh-uhoh, uh-oh/(HEY) thank you for saving my life/
Verse 2 (Tedashii):
See with us evident, most of us, we hope; I know, to get inside/
We expect to be in heaven but baby we gotta die/
Die physically and inwardly/but some men will be/
Foolish in their ways and trust they self continually/
Growing in their pride, eyes closed so they can’t see/
Walking blind all the time, too arrogant to see their need/
I can hear the preacher preach, reaching out to you and me/
Begging us to look to Jesus and no longer be deceived/
Cie-Cie-cieved, by the enemy/
or the sin in me/that says to be sufficient independently/
I’m so glad to be walking on the straight and narrow/
I know that God got me if his eye is on the sparrow/
Hook (G.P.):
I’m in love with one hand in the sky/
I’m looking at the the cross with both of my eyes/
I know I was born into sin/but now I’m in Christ yes I’m born again/
I know, I know, that Jesus lives/
And I know, I know He is my King/
And that’s why, that’s why I’ll always sing/Jesus
Thank you for saving my life/
uh-oh, uh-oh-uhoh, uh-oh/uh-oh, uh-oh-uhoh, uh-oh/
uh-oh, uh-oh-uhoh, uh-oh/(HEY) thank you for saving my life/
Verse 3 (Tedashii):
So from the newest life, the truest life/I know that He’s real/
from the changes in my stride to the way that I feel/
Something different, you sense it/even momma was trippin’/
Wondering like Alice asking me, hey boy what’s gotten in you/
I said, JESUS IS REAL (HEEEY)/this ain’t just a religion/
I done tried to practice habits but man nothing was sticking/
But His love and His joy and the peace that He brings/
Man was dead in sin till Jesus came on the scene/
Now it’s a WRAP/for ya boy/no more, quiet on set/
I’m telling everyone I know/I ain’t ashamed to represent/
I love Him/no one above Him/I’ll forever worship/
Hands high to the sky/as I show my love to Him/ (SING)
(Kids):
uh-oh, uh-oh-uh-oh-uh-oh (3x’s)
Jesus, thank you for saving my life/
