Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

I'm not afraid of who I used to be

'Cause I can see who You are making me

The dark gives way to light

Death gives way to life

I'm not afraid of who I used to be


No more fear, no more shame

I can never be the same, since You came

I am changed forever


Your love has hit me and I can't recover

I'm never going back to where I've wandered

The old is dead and gone, the new has overcome

Your love has hit me and I can't

I can't recover, I can't recover


I've been a rebel, been a runaway

I've been a beggar, I have been a slave

Freedom called my name, and love broke every chain

So I'm not afraid of who I used to be, oh-ooh


Your love has hit me and I can't recover

I'm never going back to where I've wandered

The old is dead and gone, the new has overcome

Your love has hit me and I can't

I can't recover, oh, I can't recover


And You took back the days, the grave had stole away

You brought my heart back to life

Jesus, You came for me, changing everything

And no more death, I'm alive, I'm alive

You took back the days, the grave had stole away

You brought my heart back to life

Jesus, You came for me, changing everything

And no more death, I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive

No more fear, no more shame

I can never be the same, since You came

I am changed forever


Your love has hit me and I can't recover

I'm never going back to where I've wandered

The old is dead and gone, the new has overcome

Your love has hit me and I can't

I can't recover, oh, I can't recover

Oh, I can't recover, oh, I can't recover
