Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I was born a natural sinner
I was buried in my deeds
And I heard somebody saying that
The Lord could meet my needs
Well of course I just ignored him
'Cause it sounded so absurd
But then he talked me into church one night
And this is what I heard
[Chorus]
Hallelujah Jesus
For God so loved the world
That he gave his only son to die
That whosoever believ-eth
Could have everlasting life
Well that was when I saw the light
My oh my
[Verse 2]
Well I realized to my surprise
That I couldn't sing along
But my heart was touched so very much
That I saw where I was wrong
When I gave my life to Jesus
I became no longer dead
Because he took away my stone cold heart
And gave me his instead
[Chorus]
So hallelujah Jesus
For God so loved this wretched man
That he gave his only son to die
That even this hopeless sinner
Could have everlasting life
Well I was once a dead man walking
But I'm alive
Thank you Lord
[Verse 3]
I was baptized in the water
With a brand new life ahead
Baptized in his spirit
And my sinful days are dead
Well it's good to know I have a rock
On whom I can depend
'Cause I'll be baptized in the fiery trials
Before I reach the end
[Chorus]
So hallelujah Jesus
For God so loved the world
That he gave his only son to die
That whosoever believ-eth
Could have everlasting life
You're the reason why I sing this song
Thank You Lord
[Outro]
(Thank You Lord)
(Thank You Lord)
(Thank You Lord)
