Saved

B
I was blinded by the devil Born already ruined Stone-cold dead As I stepped out of the womb By His grace I have been touched By His word I have been healed By His hand I've been delivered By His spirit I've been sealed I've been saved by the blood of the lamb Saved by the blood of the lamb Saved (saved)
E
And I'm so glad, yes, I'm so glad
B
Well, I'm so glad, so glad

I want to thank You, Lord By His truth I can be upright By His strength I do endure By His power I've been lifted In His love I am secure He bought me with a price Freed me from the pit Full of emptiness and wrath And the fire that burns in it I've been saved... Nobody to rescue me Nobody would dare I was going down for the last time But by His mercy I've been spared Not by works But by faith in Him who called For so long I've been hindered For so long I've been stalled

You have given me life to live How can I live for You? I know all about poison, I know all about fiery darts I don't care how rough the road is, show me where it starts Whatever pleases You, tell it to my heart Well, I don't deserve it but I sure did make it through What can I do for You?

By the saving grace that's over me By this time I'd-a thought I would be sleeping In a pine box for all eternity My faith keeps me alive, but I still be weeping For the saving grace that's over me Well, the death of life, then come the resurrection Wherever I am welcome is where I'll be I put all my confidence in Him, my sole protection Is the saving grace that's over me Well, the devil's shining light, it can be most blinding But to search for love, that ain't no more than vanity As I look around this world all that I'm finding Is the saving grace that's over me The wicked know no peace and you just can't fake it There's only one road and it leads to Calvary It gets discouraging at times, but I know I'll make it By the saving grace that's over me

Hope you're ready Am I ready? Am I ready? Am I ready? Am I ready? Am I ready to lay down my life for the brethren And to take up my cross? Have I surrendered to the will of God Or am I still acting like the boss? Am I ready, hope I'm ready When destruction cometh swiftly And there's no time to say a fare-thee-well Have you decided whether you want to be In heaven or in hell? Are you ready? Are you ready? Have you got some unfinished business? Is there something holding you back? Are you thinking for yourself Or are you following the pack? Are you ready for the judgement? Are you ready for that terrible swift sword? Are you ready for Armageddon? Are you ready for the day of the Lord?
