Before You
Anthony Evans's song 'Before You' is a worship ballad about transformation through encountering God. The lyrics contrast a past of falling, crawling, and searching for meaning with a present of standing forgiven and free in God's presence. The singer expresses gratitude, humility, and awe at God's mercy, beauty, and love. He joins the angels in offering praise and worship. The song emphasizes personal change and thankfulness for what God has done, without referencing a specific Bible verse. It is a straightforward expression of personal testimony and adoration.
Before you
I was always falling
Sometimes even crawling
With nothing to hold on to
Before you
I was searching for something
To make my life worth living
But nothing could satisfy
[Chorus:]
Before you
Standing in your glory
I just want to thank you
For all you've done for me
Before you
I offer you my worship
Now I can stand forgiven and free
Cause I'm not the man that I used to be
Before you
I'm humbled by your mercy
Staggered by your beauty
Honored by your love for me
Before you
The angels raise their anthem
And I will gladly join them
In lifting up my praise
[Chorus]
Before you
