Lyrics
I was lost, but now I am found
I was lost in life but now have found direction or purpose.
I was Blind…., But now I see
Previously unaware or ignorant, but now I comprehend.
I was dead, but now I am alive
I was spiritually dead, devoid of vitality, but now I'm spiritually alive.
I can sing, I can praise
I have the ability to vocalize joy and gratitude through singing.
I can shout, I can scream
I have the ability to express myself loudly, conveying emotions freely.
I can go… to the mountain tops
I can ascend to great heights metaphorically.
Then I raise up my voice
Expressing vocally, praising and acknowledging the Lord.
And sing to the Lord… Wooooo

Gimme that grace, give me that light
