I was once

I was once lost/but you have found me/I was once forsaken/by what this world offered.
Then you have shown me what it means to be comforted. I was once so far away from you/
but you have drawn my heart close/I was once so concerned/about the affairs of this world/
now I can feel my desires my heart/beginning to change.

I was once living in sin/but I am asking for you to call me home again/I was once a leper/
but the disease seemed to reach/much deeper within my heart. Then you healed me from within/
I was once blind to everything of you/then I cried out for understanding/and now I am beginning to see.

I was once broken and bleeding/please heal my soul/I was once so on fire for you/I am asking you/
to rekindle that same flame/I was once holding onto shattered dreams.
Then I gave you my desires/I gave you my heart/I do not know where to begin. You have rescued me from sin again.

I was once seeking things not of you/but I can see you changing my heart/
I can feel your hand of healing over my life/nothing of this world can even compare to you/
I know that you are chasing after me/even when I am running the other direction/you have fixed my eyes on you/
help me to seek.
