Saved
Redemption's Anthem: Rising from the Depths
Lyrics
I was drowning
I was overwhelmed and struggling.
Yeah I was drowning in an ocean of sin
I was overwhelmed by a multitude of sinful actions.
And I was sinking
I was gradually losing hope and sinking deeper.
Beyond the hope of ever rising again
I had reached a point where it seemed impossible to recover.
But then You reached down
God intervened and reached out to me.
Way down in the deep where I was
God reached into the depths of my despair.
You stood me up
God lifted me up from my desperate situation.
And there I stood surprised to be loved
I stood there, surprised and moved by the love I received.
oh You make me so complete
God completes me.
You lift me up
God raises me up from within.
From the inside out
Transformation happening internally.
The outside in
Transformation happening externally.
I have been saved
I have experienced salvation.
I have been saved
-I've been saved
I've been saved.
it seemed hopeless
My situation seemed without hope.
Treading water in a pointless fight
Struggling without purpose.
Out of the darkness
Rescued from darkness by God's light.
Oh I was rescued by the brightest light
God's light saved me.
Now that You got me
Now that God has me, I ask Him to hold me tightly.
Father please hold on tight
Seeking God's continual support.
Don't ever let go
Expressing the desire to never let go of God.
I don't ever wanna go back to my old life
I never want to return to my previous life.
yeah oh You make me so complete
God's presence makes me whole.
You lift me up
God lifts me up from within.
From the inside out
Transformation occurring internally.
The outside in
Transformation occurring externally.
I have been saved
I have experienced salvation.
I have been saved
-I've been saved
I've been saved.
I have been saved
I have experienced salvation.
You are my lifeline
God is my source of life and rescue.
Oh and You saved me from myself
God saved me from my own destructive tendencies.
You have made me new
God has made me new.
oh You made me so complete
God's presence completes me.
You lift me up
God lifts me up from within.
From the inside out
Transformation happening internally.
The outside in
Transformation happening externally.
I have been saved
I have experienced salvation.
I was drowning
Reiteration of the initial state of despair.
I was drowning in an ocean of sin
Reiteration of being overwhelmed by sin.
And I was sinking
Reiteration of sinking beyond hope.
Beyond the hope of ever rising again
Reiteration of the desperation to rise again.
