He picked me up off the ground
On my head he placed a crown
gave me a reason to breath
He said daughter its you and me
When I was falling short he gave me the will to keep on living and he said would you rather die for this world or die for the king?
If it wasn’t for Jesus I’d be buried 6 feet under by now
he lifted me up placed my feet on holy ground
If it wasn’t for Jesus, I wouldn’t still be here through broken years he dried my tears.
The ultimate sacrifice, the one who hung for you and I
he broke all of the molds of who I used to be now I’m chosen and free.
What a beautiful thing it is to belong to him
To know that falling short everyday won’t make him turn away struggling for the kingdom will never be in vain.
It’s Time to dust off the Bible and pray for a change and only Jesus holds the plan and knows the way
If it wasn’t for Jesus I’d be buried 6 feet under by now
he lifted me up placed my feet on holy ground
If it wasn’t for Jesus, I wouldn’t still be here through broken years he dried my tears.
The ultimate sacrifice, the one who hung for you and I
he broke all of the molds of who I used to be now I’m chosen and free.
It’s times like these when I fear the past will forever haunt me but I know it’s his glory and his grace that’s redeemed me from the pit.
When I’ve been broken, hit my knees, and cried alone on the bedroom floor
it’s been Jesus who’s been beside me.
If it wasn’t for Jesus I’d be buried 6 feet under by now
he lifted me up placed my feet on holy ground
If it wasn’t for Jesus, I wouldn’t still be here through broken years he dried my tears.
The ultimate sacrifice, the one who hung for you and I
he broke all of the molds of who I used to be now I’m chosen and free.
If it wasn’t for Jesus I wouldn’t be me.
