[Verse 1]
Yeah, I was that kid, back row, head low
Heart full of hurt, actin' like I didn't know
Scrolling through the pain every night till three
Wonder why the One who made me would ever look at me
Bottle on the dresser, texts I shouldn't send
Thought I had a thousand "friends," didn't have one friend
Voice in my chest sayin', "You ain't worth much"
Till grace pulled up, said, "You been worth My blood"
[Chorus]
He finds the lost in the dark, turns graves into gardens
Breathes life in the ashes, calls the broken "My son, My daughter"
Mercy ran faster than all of my wandering
His love redeems the unworthy
Yeah, His love redeems the unworthy (hey!)
Light in the room I was locked in
Hope in a heart that felt forgotten
[Verse 2]
He stepped in the mess, didn't flinch at the smell
Walked into my shame like, "Yeah, I know you well"
Hands on my scars, didn't pull away once
Said, "I carried worse than that when I hung on that cross"
I was tryna earn what was paid in full
Tryna clean up first, He just called me "yours"
Tore up my list of the things I ain't
Said, "I call you chosen, I don't call you by your chains" (woo)
[Chorus]
He finds the lost in the dark, turns graves into gardens
Breathes life in the ashes, calls the broken "My son, My daughter"
Mercy ran faster than all of my wandering
His love redeems the unworthy
Yeah, His love redeems the unworthy
Light in the room I was locked in
Hope in a heart that felt forgotten
[Bridge]
If you feel too far, He's right where you are (right there)
If you think you're done, that's where He starts
Every tear you hide, He saw from the start
He won't let you slip from His heart (nah)
From the alleyway to the altar
From the backseat to the Father
Every lost one, every fostered
He says, "You are mine forever"
[Chorus]
He finds the lost in the dark, turns graves into gardens
Breathes life in the ashes, calls the broken "My son, My daughter"
Mercy ran faster than all of my wandering
His love redeems the unworthy
Yeah, His love redeems the unworthy (oh yeah)
Light in the room I was locked in
Hope in a heart that felt forgotten
