Alive

I was dead in my transgressions
Wandering in sin
I went searching for redemption
Down a road that had no end

I was walking through the fire
I was living on the run
With my flesh lost in desire
I was drowning in the flood

But God, rich in mercy
You came to save me
Now I'm alive
But God, strong and mighty
You reached down for me
So I could rise
Now I'm alive

I am far from being perfect
There are days that I regret
On this battlefield, I struggle
With the lies that I have lived

I have fallen short of glory
I can't make it on my own
If You kept record of my past
I'd be sinking like a stone

But God, rich in mercy
You came to save me
Now I'm alive
But God, strong and mighty
You reached down for me
So I could rise

Now I'm breathing in, I'm breathing out
I was in the grave, but God You called me out
I'm breathing in, I'm breathing out
I was in the grave, but God You called me out

But God, rich in mercy
You came to save me
Now I'm alive
My God, strong and mighty
You reached down for me
So I could rise

Now I'm breathing in, I'm breathing out
I was in the grave, but God You called me out
Now I'm breathing in, I'm breathing out
I was in the grave, but God You called me out
Now I'm alive
