[Intro: Female Soulful Voice]
Oh, Lord, You kept me, You kept my soul alive
In the midst of the struggle, Your love I can't deny
Through the pain and the rain, I lift my voice high
Thank You for salvation, I sing it till I die
[Chorus: Female Soulful Voice]
Hallelujah, I’m saved by grace
Woke up this morning, seen Your face
Through the trials, I embrace
His love, His mercy, His divine grace
Hallelujah, I’m free at last
In His love, I stand steadfast
No devil in the world can catch me slipping
God’s love is forever, His power so uplifting
[Verse 1: Male Rap]
Yo, I was born in the struggle, streets cold and gritty
Mama’s cryin’, Daddy gone, but I kept my spirit witty
Young brother tough, but the world made me gritty
Prayin’ in the dark, Lord, I need You with me
Son hit by a car, life flashed in my eyes
But His angels hovered, I heard heaven’s lullabies
The pain was deep, but His love ran so mighty
Accepted Jesus Christ, in my heart, I got it right, see
His blood paid my price, now I walk in victory
Devil trying to trap me, but I see his strategy
He’s all around, sneakin’ in moments of weakness
But I got my shield, His Word keeps me fearless
On the streets, I saw loved ones fall and rise
But God kept me alive, with His eyes on the prize
He’s the reason I survive, His grace is a gift
Through the fire and the rain, I continue to shift
He’s working in ways I can’t comprehend
But I know He’s faithful, He’s more than a friend
When I was in Philly, Sunday mornings in the choir
Singing for the Lord, I felt His flame grow higher
Even in hospital rooms, His presence was near
Angel watching over me, I had no fear
Now I stand here, telling my story of salvation
His love is eternal, His grace my foundation
He died for my sins, rose again, set me free
And I thank Him every day for what He’s done for me
[Pre-Chorus: Female Soulful Voice]
No devil can catch me slipping, I stand on His word
His love surrounds me, I’ve seen how He’s worked in my life
Mysterious ways, I don’t question His plan
He’s in the corner, watching, guiding my hand
[Chorus: Female Soulful Voice]
Hallelujah, I’m saved by grace
Woke up this morning, seen Your face
Through the trials, I embrace
His love, His mercy, His divine grace
Hallelujah, I’m free at last
In His love, I stand steadfast
No devil in the world can catch me slipping
God’s love is forever, His power so uplifting
[Bridge: Male Rap]
I don’t know when it’s my time to go
But I know I’ll see Him in the celestial glow
Family in heaven, angels watch my soul
His love is the anchor that’s made me whole
He’s workin’ in ways I’ll never understand
But I trust in His plan, I’m a born-again man
Looked over my son when he was hit, ain’t no accident
God’s protection, His love—His everlasting presence
[Outro: Female Soulful Voice]
Thank You, Lord, for your endless mercy
For the love that’s eternal, for the life You’ve given me
I praise Your name, forever I’ll testify
Until I see You in heaven, in the sky, oh my
[End]
