U Saved Me

[Intro]

True stories (what)

Miracles (what)

True blessings (what)

All because of love

True stories (what)

Miracles (what)

True blessings (what)

All because of love

[Verse 1]

I was riding in my car one day (oh)

In the express lane rolling down the freeway

And suddenly the phone rings

Then I reached down beside me

Then I looked on the floor felt, on the back seat

See I was drinking while I was driving

Never thinking bout what I was doing

I turned around and before I knew it

Here comes this truck now

The doctor said "I don't think he's gonna make it"

Family said "make the funeral arrangements

Unplug the machine he's gone now"

Then told my wife to be strong now

Then a small voice said unto me

"If you promise to stop drinking"

I surrendered on that day

And for ten years I've been straight

[Chorus]

You saved me (woah) You saved me

You saved me, You saved me, gave me a second chance

You saved me, You saved me

You saved me, You saved me

[Verse 2]

Now I've been sitting in the chair

Waiting on the phone to ring

Praying up to God that someone would call me with a job opening

Cause its been so hard for me month to month

Struggling to eat but still there was no answer (no answer)

I stopped believing in His word and got so mad at Him

When somebody say God's good I just laugh at them (oh yeah)

And in the nick of time, His blessings rained on me

By His grace the phone ring, a lady says "We're hiring"

And that's when I knew

[Chorus]

You saved me (saved) You saved me

You saved me, You saved me, gave me a second chance

You saved me, You saved me

You saved me, You saved me

[Verse 3]

Now I was eighteen out on the block selling drugs

With a gun at my waist and for people had no love

See the streets was my home and family and friends were gone

Had no one to trust and deep inside I was all alone

And then a deal went bad one day and it was enough to pause me

I was shot four times and before I knew it I was on my knees

(Blood gushing out my body. my hearts beatin' fast

I don't know what I'ma do, I don't think I'm gonna last)

Then I began to flashback on the thing I've done in my past

(Then I heard a small voice that said to me "I'll give you peace if you believe")

I accepted Christ that day, hallelujah, now I'm free!

[Chorus]

You saved me (saved) You saved me

You saved me, You saved me, gave me a second chance

You saved me, You saved me

You saved me, You saved me

[Verse 4]

I was in the aisle of the grocery store

With a pain in my chest and I'm wondering where did it come from

(I got tested) and the results came back and the doctor said "I'm sorry but you've got cancer"

I could not believe it so I called up my mama to calm my nerves

(Mama) She got down on her knees

(Mam,) She said a prayer for me

(mama) Said "Just keep on thanking Jesus

(Mama) He'll give you all you need"

That was five years ago, don't have that pain no more

Doc says "You can go home, cause all your cancers gone"

[Chorus]

You saved me (said You saved me) You saved me

You saved me, You saved me, gave me a second chance

You saved me, You saved me

You saved me, You saved me

Just when I was going left

[Bridge]

When I was goin' left, You stirred me right

Goes all the way down, and You lift me up all night

And though You saw my faults, and forgave me for sins

And I would call on You, then You would let me in

I had nothing to lose, and so I tried You

And now I'm glad I did, cause You are the truth

[Chorus]

You saved me (cause You saved me) You saved me (woah, You saved me)

You saved me (You saved), You saved me, gave me a second chance

You saved me, You saved me

You saved me, You saved me

You saved me, You saved me

You saved me, You saved me, gave me a second chance

You saved me, You saved me

You saved me, You saved me
