Lyrics
Bad luck what's the use of trying
Hard times are nothing new
Story of my life, nothing ever changes
Well that became my former point of view
Burned out, jaded, disillusioned
Trapped inside the story of my sin
Until the Author took His pen, CROSSed out all my failures
Freed me from the prison I was in
CRS:
Now the story of my life is the story of the cross
The story is no longer about me
He rewrote the lines, restored the loss
Now the story of my life
Is the story of the One who died for me
New page, all has been forgiven
Covered by the Father's saving love
This script will have a happy ending
Written in the Savior's precious blood
(Repeat CRS)
BRG:
I was the writer and producer and director
It was a tragic, convoluted kind of tale
The leading character was me
Oh what a stunningly fantastic epic ....FAIL!
CRS:
Now the story of my life is the story of the cross
The story is no longer about me
He erased the lies, and replaced the loss
Now the story of my life
Is the story of the One who died for me
Now the story of my life is the one I love to tell
Where the Son of God came down to earth to rescue me from hell
Yeah, the story of my life is the living Word of God
That He wrote upon my heart to set me free
Yeah, the story of my life
Is the story of the One who died for me
It's the story of the One who died for me
