Verse 1 (Soloist)
(Chord progression: G - C/G - G - D/F#)
I was lost in the shadows, blinded by the night,
Chasin' after promises that never saw the light.
Every road I traveled, led me further from the truth,
Trapped by heavy burdens, wasted all my youth.
Then a whisper in the darkness, called my name out loud and clear,
A sudden, rushing power, wiped away every fear.
Pre-Chorus (Soloist)
(Chord progression: C - G/B - Am - D)
I felt the chains unlockin', I heard the shackles fall,
I didn't have to earn it, He simply heard my call!
The debt was too high, a price I couldn't pay,
But I heard Him say...
Chorus (Soloist and Choir - Upbeat, joyful, and full volume)
(Chord progression: G - C - Em - D)
He saved me! Oh, the Lord looked down and He reached for me!
Yeah, He set me free! From the bondage and the misery!
He saved me! And washed away every single stain!
And now I am redeemed! I’ll never be the same!
My spirit is alive, my future is bright, I'm walkin' in the light!
Oh, He saved me, and now I am redeemed!
Verse 2 (Soloist)
(Chord progression: G - C/G - G - D/F#)
The old me is buried, underneath the flowing blood.
I’m standin' on a foundation, built by the hand of God.
No more hiding my face, no more hanging down my head,
The grave clothes are abandoned, I rose up when He said:
"It is finished, child, I paid it all for you!"
And with that single word, He made my whole life new.
Pre-Chorus (Soloist)
(Chord progression: C - G/B - Am - D)
I felt the chains unlockin', I heard the shackles fall,
I didn't have to earn it, He simply heard my call!
The debt was too high, a price I couldn't pay,
But I heard Him say...
Chorus (Soloist and Choir - Even more dynamic, with powerful vocal runs)
(Chord progression: G - C - Em - D)
He saved me! Oh, the Lord looked down and He reached for me!
Yeah, He set me free! From the bondage and the misery!
He saved me! And washed away every single stain!
And now I am redeemed! I’ll never be the same!
My spirit is alive, my future is bright, I'm walkin' in the light!
Oh, He saved me, and now I am redeemed!
Bridge (Soloist and Choir - Slowing down slightly for emphasis, then building)
(Chord progression: Am - Em - C - D)
I wanna tell the mountains, and I wanna tell the sea!
Every soul who’s burdened, what the Savior did for me!
He reached down, He pulled me up, He turned me all around!
Took my feet off sinking sand, put them on solid ground!
I'm a witness! I'm a testimony! Lift your hands and sing along!
Outro/Vamp (Choir Repetition and Soloist Ad-libs - Uptempo, jubilant, and repetitive)
Choir: He saved me! Set me free! I am redeemed!
Soloist: Yeah! I am His, and He is mine! Thank you, Jesu
