Change
I was born in a world of sin
And shape in iniquity.
I never knew the lord until
He saved me.
I was in the habit of drinking and smoking
Never wanted to hear about church
Because of the life I was living.
All that change one day
That was on my Sixteen Birthday.
I was drinking and partying
But was told to keep a thanksgiving.
I suddenly collapse and fall down,
Not knowing my heart was about give out
I was picked up and rushed to the hospital.
As I pass the door, my heart stop
And I breath no more.
For that moment I was alone
In a dark place all on my own.
With no one their not a single light
No one their to comfort or say!
“It’s gonna be fine”
Then I wake up laying speechless
For I was on life machine.
While my family were crying and praying.
Why I’m I here, what had happen?
My aunt say I should be grateful
Because God kept me.
Then I turn and ask God
Why he didn’t take me.
For I never listen to my uncle
Who told me to keep a thanksgiving.
Cause of the sickness
I was born with.
I was told by the doctor
That I wouldn’t live to see 16.
But God show up and heal me
And said “he have great plans for me”
So I can live and do his work.
Here I am at 23years old
Still alive up to a day like today.
Thanking God every step
Of the way.
Sometime I stumble
Sometime I fall
So I get right back up
Go at it all again.
For I was I was born in a world of sin
And shape in iniquity.
I used to place the things of the world in-front
Now I worshipped and glorified Him.
