I once was lost but then You found me and loved me
|
And I'm never gonna look away
|
No I'm never gonna look away
|
You paid the cost You showed me how You bought me
|
And I'm never gonna look away
|
No I'm never gonna look away (away)
|
|
Who am I? Just a thief nobody cares about
|
The kind that would run up in your house steal your jewels and couch
|
Been on the run for so long
|
But they caught me now
|
They hung me on this cross I'm on and I see the crowd
|
But next to me is someone who I've heard about
|
They say He heals the blind and lame but I got my doubts
|
So what's His name I can't remember
|
Someone screamed it out said it was Jesus
|
But this man he didn't make a sound
|
He hung there breathing with the blood running down His mouth
|
He'd been beaten a crown of thorns now was on his brow
|
See what I've done is just the reason why I'm hanging now
|
But this man is innocent and I can see it now
|
I said, "Jesus are you listening do you hear me now
|
Remember me just on the day You bring Your kingdom down
|
I want to change my ways I really want Your freedom now,"
|
He took my sin away and this is why I say it loud
|
|
I once was lost but then You found me and loved me
|
And I'm never gonna look away
|
No I'm never gonna look away
|
You paid the cost You showed me how You bought me
|
And I'm never gonna look away
|
No I'm never gonna look away (away)
|
|
He turned His head and said Today you're gonna be with Me
|
Cause very soon I'll be dead but I'm a set you free
|
Cause every drop that I've bled is so what you would see
|
That it was shed for you to be with Me eternally
|
The other thief he just laughed at what He said to me
|
Said you ain't comin back you're nothing what you claim to be
|
If you was king then why'd they hang you next to me
|
See what I think is you're a liar and it's plain to see
|
But Jesus was silent and soon time began to pass
|
He cried "It is finished" and went and breathed his last
|
He died the sky was rumbling and started turning black
|
But I knew He'd come again because I knew the facts
|
My time to die is coming soon and it's coming fast
|
It's hard to breathe I'm trying to began to gasp
|
I can't deny what is true cause it's all I have
|
Now I knew that paradise is where I'm heading at
|
|
I once was lost but then You found me and loved me
|
And I'm never gonna look away
|
No I'm never gonna look away
|
You paid the cost You showed me how You bought me
|
And I'm never gonna look away
|
No I'm never gonna look away (away)

[Bridged]
|
I had a debt I could not pay
|
Your love broke through took it away
|
I once was lost now I'm found to You I make this joyful sound
|
Please remember me Lord when You come again
|
Time is passing by my life is coming to the end
|
I'm about to die it's time so please let me in
|
Please remember me Lord when You come again
|
|
I once was lost but then You found me and loved me
|
And I'm never gonna look away
|
No I'm never gonna look away
|
You paid the cost You showed me how You bought me
|
And I'm never gonna look away
|
No I'm never gonna look away
