Dead Man şarkı sözleri

I was once a dead man A stranger with no home I stood opposed to God himself And yet He pardoned me With all my heart and the fiercest will Desired not but to thieve and kill I hadn't a thought of peace, but war Surrender was not what I'd endure I was a murderer filled with lies and deceit Faced with my list of crimes that I would always repeat Deliver me! Wake me up from this damning sleep I'm surrendering! Pull me out from this wickedness In this thieving heart of stone I realized all these sins I could not atone I was a murderer filled with lies and deceit Faced with my list of crimes that I would always repeat I was once a dead man A stranger with no home I stood opposed to God himself And yet He pardoned me So just at the right time when we were dead in our sins You took this heart of mine and gave me life again You gave me life again This is where I begin So far apart and a debt to fulfill This purchase bought on redemption's hill An ailing disease I couldn't cure Oh this grace! How rich and pure! Abide in me, my God! I am found in You Pardon me, my God! You know my deepest thoughts Deliver me from sin! I am made anew I'm surrendering this heart! For which your blood it bought The mob they yelled and screamed for justice That wrath was ours we are to blame You made a spectacle of rulers Denying You of a king's fame Having crushed the written cannon That wrote of all our guilt and shame Displayed upon the tree it was nailed The saving power of Your name For I was once a dead man A stranger with no home You saw this wretch And You gave him life Forever I'll praise You! I will praise You!
