Story behind the song
I was about 20yrs old when it all started making sense to me. I had faith, but i didn't show it. I transferred colleges to A&M Commerce in Texas. I thank God for allowing me to meet my brothers Bartos and Rupert there. Watching them stand for Christ was an inspiration to me, and helped me grow up. They also introduced me to the Orange County Supertones. This song is about conversion. Whether its going from zero faith in Jesus to faith in Him, or its going from a "going through the motions" faith to a "walk the walk" faith, at some point we have to be converted. Read about Saul/Paul in the bible in the book of Acts ch 9. Now that was a conversion.
Lyrics
You came and you woke me up From my twenty year old slump Outside I looked grown up But inside I wasn’t Rubbing my eyes I was halfway blind Choking back tears and Thinking ‘bout dying Waiting for someone to wake me up Telling me it was over But it was just the beginning I saw the light I saw the other side I went from dark to light Now peace and quiet is inside of me And I won’t deny My sins have been crucified And like the thief upon the cross I stand by the Savior’s side Once upon a time I flatlined But You came and You breathed In me new life You opened me up You looked inside You got further than anyone who had Ever tried I’d been exposed and I had nothing Nothing left to hide From You I saw the light I saw the other side I went from dark to light Now peace and quiet is inside of me And I won’t deny My sins have been crucified And like the thief upon the cross I stand by the Savior’s side Once upon a time I flatlined But You came and You breathed In me new life You found me in the nick of time You saved me from a flatline broken heart I had flatlined I had flatlined
