Tried to run
Tried to hide
Tried to keep you out
Tried it all
All I got left me broken down
Living my way never helped at all
And I got so tired a tryin' to build these walls
At the end when I lost
That's when I got found
I tried to fight You forever
I even cursed Your name
And when I stumbled
On what I'd done
I said You were to blame
I tried to say it's all a story
And put You right back in the grave
But the reason I believe it
Is You loved me anyway
Yea You loved
Yea You loved
Yea You loved me
Yea You loved me anyway
Now I'm here Thank You Lord on the other side
But sometimes lookin' back keeps me up at night
I could be dead I could be even worse
Could've put my family through so much more hurt
But the grace of God
Made not who I was
Oh thank you Jesus
I tried to fight You forever
I even cursed Your name
And when I stumbled
On what I'd done
I said You were to blame
I tried to say it's all a story
And put You right back in the grave
But the reason I believe it
Is You loved me anyway
Yea You loved
Yea You loved
Yea You loved me
Yea You loved me anyway
Yea You loved
Yea You loved
Yea You loved me
Yea You loved me anyway
I'm singing
Holy, Holy, Holy
Lord God Almighty
Don't wanna fight You forever
I wanna bless Your name
And when I stumble on what I've done
I'll stand on Your amazing grace
And I will tell of that story
When You rose up the grave
And the reason I believe it
Is You loved me anyway
Yea You loved
Yea You loved
Yea You loved me
Yea You loved me anyway
Yea You loved
Yea You loved
Yea You loved me
Yea You loved me anyway
Singing
Holy, Holy, Holy
Lord God Almighty
Yea You loved
Yea You loved
Yea You loved me
Yea You loved me anyway
Yea You loved
Yea You loved
Yea You loved me
Yea You loved me anyway
