Heeyyyyy
Hey hey preacher man
Do you mind if I borrow that mic? (Uh-huh!)
You been talking 'bout
How everybody got a story
Here is mine
I was so lost, I was so lost
But now I'm found, yeah, yeah
Hey hey preacher man
Let's take a walk down by the river
Let the holy water wash over me
'Cause now that I've been delivered
I want the whole world
To know that I'm a new man now
And it's only by God's grace
I'm standing here today
If you're feeling what I'm feeling
Let me hear you say amen
If you're a new creation, amen
If you got that feel good in your soul
That hope that won't let you go
If you're feeling what I'm feeling
Let me hear you say amen
Every time I look back over my shoulder
I can see the life He saved me from
Every time I look back over my shoulder
I can see the life He saved me from
Thank God
Hey Church, now you see
This little light of mine
Well, my question is a simple one (Who's next?)
Come get in line
I'm talking one by
I'm talking one by, one by one
Gonna testify
That it's only by God's grace
We're standing here today
If you're feeling what I'm feeling
Let me hear you say amen
If you're a new creation, amen
If you got that feel good in your soul
That hope that won't let you go
If you're feeling what I'm feeling
Let me hear you say amen
Every time I look back over my shoulder
I can see the life, I can see the life
He saved me, He saved me from
Every time I look back over my shoulder
I can see the life He saved me from
Every time I look back over my shoulder
I can see the life, I can see the life
He saved me, He saved me from
Every time I look back over my shoulder
I can see the life He saved me from
Thank God
If you're feeling what I'm feeling
Let me hear you say amen
If you're a new creation, amen
If you got that feel good in your soul
That hope that won't let you go
If you're feeling what I'm feeling
Let me hear you say amen
Amen
If you're a new creation, amen
If you got that feel good in your soul
That hope that won't let you go
If you're feeling what I'm feeling
Let me hear you say amen
Every time I look back over my shoulder
I can see the life He saved me from
Every time I look back over my shoulder
I can see the life He saved me from
Thank God
