I've made mistakes I thought
I'd never recover from
Some said I fell from grace
I just knew I was done
I felt discarded, abandoned and thrown away
But then God's love stepped in
Restored me to my place
He said
You are my chosen vessel
You are anointed for this season in time
What people rejected
I have accepted
I am with you, you are mine
You are mine
I've made mistakes I thought
I'd never recover from
Some said I fell from grace
I just knew I was done
I felt discarded, abandoned and thrown away
But then God's love stepped in
Restored me to my place
I heard him say
You are my chosen vessel
You are anointed for this season in time
What people rejected
I have accepted
I am with you, you are mine
You are mine
You are my chosen vessel
You are anointed for this season in time
What people rejected
I have accepted
I am with you, you are mine
You are mine
I'm so glad my past is
Under the blood
I'm so glad my sins are
Covered by love
I'm so glad my past is
Under the blood
I'm so glad my sins are
Covered by love
I'm so glad my past is
Under the blood
I'm so glad my sins are
Covered by love
I'm so glad my past is
Under the blood
I'm so glad my sins are
Covered by love
Use me
Use me
I'll be your vessel
Glory
Honor
I'll serve you with my whole life
Use me
I'll be your vessel
Glory
Honor
I'll serve you with my whole life
I'm so glad my past is
Under the blood
I'm so glad my sins are
Covered by love
I'm so glad my past is
Under the blood
I'm so glad my sins are
Covered by love
You are my chosen vessel
You are anointed for this season in time
What people rejected
I have accepted
I am with you, you are mine
You are mine
