I WAS BORN A BLIND BOY WITH A HEART OF STONE
IT WAS JUST MINE AND ME AND I WAS ALL ALONE
BUT THE GREAT PHYSICIAN SPOKE MY NAME
HE SOFTENED MY HEART, HE HEALED MY PAIN
MY DADDY GAVE ME A WICKED GIFT
THE PATHWAY OF DARKNESS, MY FATHER SINS
BUT THE WORDS OF THE SAVIOR HAVE LIT MY FEET
THE CHAINS HAVE BEEN BROKEN, I'M WALKING FREE
THE WAYS OF TROUBLE, WERE BRINGING ME DOWN
I WAS LOOSING IT ALL ON THE DOUBLE, IT WAS SPINNING ME OUT
BUT I GAINED MY LIFE BY SELLING MY SOUL
FOR A PLACE IN THE KINGDOM WITH STREETS OF GOLD
YOU CALLED ME YOUR SON, YOU GAVE ME YOUR ROBE
YOU THREW ME A PARTY TO WELCOME ME HOME
YOUR ARMS OF MERCY WRAP ME TIGHT
YOU'VE CHANGED MY HEART, YOU'VE SAVED MY LIFE
SO COME TO TABLE AND TAKE A DRINK
IT'S NOTHING LIKE YOU'VE EVER TASTED, MUCH MORE THAN YOU THINK
ITS GOURMET FORGIVENESS AND 5 STAR LOVE
FROM THE PRINCE OF HEAVEN, REDEMPTION’S COME
IF YOU'RE FEELING DIRTY, BROKEN OR LOST
JUST LOOK TO THE SAVIOR WHO PAID THE COST
HE LAID DOWN HIS LIFE SO WE COULD BE
SONS AND DAUGHTERS OF THE KINGDOM, WALKING FREE
