In the name of Jesus I confess my sins
In the name of Jesus, yes my life begins
In the name of Jesus I have been saved and reborn again
In the name of Jesus I begin
In the name of Jesus yeah my heart is healed
In the name of Jesus I’m revealed
This is my testimony , listen close and let me tell it
Born into a broken world didn’t know how to help it
loved the people in my circle tried to fit in all my life
built a name ,worked hard, tried to do what was right
had a career had the image kept it all looking good
but never knew God like I should
Used to go to church yeah every sing week
Till I turned fifteen and everything got weak
Started smoking, started drinking, acting wild and mean
Talkin’ back to my mama in her wheelchair scene
Skipped school, ran fast , thought I had control
Little demon child , yeah I lost my soul
in the name of Jesus I confess my sins
In the name of Jesus ,yes my life begins
i have been saved and reborn again
in the name of Jesus I begin
in the name of Jesus, yeah my heart is healed
in the name of Jesus I’m revealed
thirty five hit hard ,lost it all in a day
Home ,car, job dog- everything stripped away
sent my daughter off cause I had to rebuild
every dream I had every promise unfulfilled
Felt like Job, no joke, but I didn’t know his name
just knew I was standing in the middle of the flame
friends disappeared , yeah one by one
loneliness hit like a loaded gun
God gave it all back , he rebuilt me , new house two times bigger, better job triple pay, better relationship with kid, new car, hair, and nails done , vacations, food in the cabinets, with joy and family, with friends
later now look at what he’s done
2 books, 6 songs and a brand new one
just getting started
see, God will break you just to make you whole
Strip it all away just to save your soul
he separates you, brings that lonely night
but in the dark is where he shows his light
i thought I lost it all that day,, thought it slipped away
But he was calling me back that day
i was greedy, selfish, chasing the lie
living for the world, not asking why
people said I’m crazy, said I lost my mind
but I was being rebuilt , just in his time
didn’t know his word didn’t know his was , just memorized prayers I would barely say but he still reached down ,yeah, he still saved me
Even when I lived blind yeah he still claimed me
in the name of Jesus I confess my sins
In the name of Jesus ,yes, my life begins ,
i have been saved and reborn again
in the name of Jesus I being
in the name of Jesus yeah my heart is healed
in the name of Jesus I am revealed
Now I’m not the same yeah , I’ve been made new
Asked for forgivenesses ,and gave it out too
lost everything , almost my life
but he gave it back better, and brought me through the fight
yeah he gave it back better yeah he made it right
yeah he gave it back better in the name of Jesus I found my life
