When I would lay me down to sleep
|
I'd always pray dear Lord my soul please keep and
|
when I'd awake I would find myself giving you all praise.
|
There was nothing no one could say to sway me
|
nor make me regret the day that you reached down and saved me
|
When you came into my life you took all of my guilt away away away away away.
|
I remember that day and on the Lord
|
how I cried I got down on my knees and said Lord
|

|
You shook me and you made me all over
|
and I'll never forget I'll remember
|

|

|
And all that you constantly keep doing for me Lord.
|
At the tender age of 13 you saved me.
|

|

|

|

|

|

|

|

|

|
just to take him at his word to rest upon his promises to know thus says the Lord I remember.
|

|

|
But I heard the voice of Jesus telling me still despite all you promise me
|
