Chorus:
Lord I wanna say I’m sorry for all the things I’ve done to cause you pain, & crucify your Son
You gave your life for me, on calvary, opened up my eyes now I can see I’m starting a new way, because today is a new day, and today is the day that I’m turning it around yea, I’m Turning it around
1st Verse
When I think about the man and the sinner I used to be and all the damage I managed to cause the lamb of God
I should’ve been devoured, by the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence but looking back it was the hand of God
Wasn’t right I was wrong things so unrighteous it’s inappropriate to even mention in a song
But Lord you know, and Lord you Holy and that’s what makes the situation worse, perfect in all your ways, mistake free, but we could never say the same for us
We’re just dust, fading in lust, faking up, we put on like makeup, but you’re the savior who saved us, you raised up
a sinner like me and made me a saint but even AD after you changed me and rearranged me at times I found myself angry that I could not tame me
Until I surrendered completely unto your presence, because its truly heaven, It was my sin that led and nailed you to the cross all for me Lord you took the loss, even after I knew it I shook it off, looked it off, holiness put it off, so I could walk in my own way, all the while going the wrong way exhausted from long days, you shortened the path but I took the long way.
So Lord I’m sorry please hear me, for the things I’ve done, that’ll cause your face to be against me
Chorus:
Lord I wanna say that I’m sorry, for all the things I’ve done to cause you pain, & crucify your Son, you gave your life for me, on calvary, opened up my eyes now I can see
I’m starting a new way, because today is a new day, and today is the day that I’m turning it around yea, I’m turning it around
2nd Verse:
New Direction, new perspective, all by your grace Lord you’re a blessing
I’ve left the wide road and now I’m on the narrow, even though some friends won’t follow me Imma be honestly
Tryna be faithful to you consciously because you died for me, and contribute to your heavenly economy
All glory to you, I don’t need them to honor me obviously you kept me through the odyssey through prophecy,
Now I could see what was once blocking me, constantly you’re looking out for me without your grace ain’t no telling where I would be
Lack of your love fed my fears, but it’s your goodness O Lord that has led me here
And I’ve shed some tears because since I’ve reconsidered my path some family’s mad like i’ve done something bad
All I asked is that you take me from that state of mind that night, but I never knew your light was so bright
You redeemed me from the curse when I fiend for the curse, like a fiend at a purse, now I’m clean without dirt
I put the nails in your hands, crown of thorns on your head pierced your side with my fears and caused your blood to shed
Chorus:
Lord I wanna say that I’m sorry, for all the things I’ve done to cause you pain, & crucify your Son, you gave your life for me, on calvary, opened up my eyes now I can see
I’m starting a new way, because today is a new day, and today is the day that I’m turning it around yea, I’m turning it around
