Lyrics
All my life I sought for attention I didn't want to merely survive I didn't care how I trampled on others – as long as it kept me alive But the wealth I collected never filled up the void as the greed kept driving me on So I gave it all up when I met with the Hope of a brand new dawn And starting today I want to tell everyone about the mercy I've found Let His praise fill my mouth with a joyful sound I'm gonna do everything that He wants me to do – I'm gonna say what He wants me to say Things are gonna be different – starting today In my heart I knew I was sinful but I craved the acceptance of man I just lived for the joy of the moment true love wasn't part of the plan Til my sin was exposed to everyone in the crowd who wanted to stone me that day But I wasn't condemned - “don't sin anymore” - that was all He'd say I was raised in the truth of the scriptures living right came easy to me So proud to be one of the chosen – I hoped all around me could see Til I realized that I truly was nothing when compared to the light of the Word Now my life's direction is the Living Way since I met the Lord
