He Saved Me

The shadows of death looms
I’m confounded, I’m doom
Why am I tied like a broom?
I pray the Savior to dispel this gloom
You knew me right from the womb
Is he here, is Jesus in this room?

I was bound to addiction
Is a fact not a mere fiction
I’ve lived in sin, it was my affection
I was lost and blind
I was chained and bind
The devil manipulated my mind

I had the fact but I encountered truth one day
I met a man who showed me the true way
He shook of my drug addiction and healed my affliction
He shed His blood and saved me from eternal damnation
He loved me and showed me His eternal salvation
This wretched man was born to die
But Jesus saved me and lifted me on high

He lifted me from the ashes
And poured in me His passion
The Holy Spirit is my connection
The Word of God is my nutrition
