I was walkin’ down a long road, carryin’ all my shame, Till mercy found me tremblin’, and called me by my name. Now the weight is gone forever, like a stone rolled from my soul, And the joy of bein’ forgiven makes this broken heart whole. Now I wake up every mornin’ with a song inside my chest, ’Cause grace came like a sunrise and gave my weary heart its rest. I ain’t who I was yesterday, that old life’s said and done, And the joy of bein’ forgiven shines brighter than the sun. Hallelujah, I’m forgiven, washed in mercy like a flood, All my yesterday’s behind me, covered by redeeming love. I’m walkin’ in the freedom only grace could ever bring, Hallelujah, I’m forgiven – and my heart can’t help but sing. Friend, I’ve walked where you’re walkin’, felt the hurt you’re feelin’ now, Thought the road was too heavy, and I didn’t know how. But the same new light that found me can break through for you, There’s a sunrise waitin’ yonder, and it’s gonna find you too. Hallelujah, I’m forgiven, washed in mercy like a flood, All my yesterday’s behind me, covered by redeeming love. I’m walkin’ in the freedom only grace could ever bring, Hallelujah, I’m forgiven – and my heart can’t help but sing. Hallelujah, I’m forgiven, washed in mercy like a flood, All my yesterday’s behind me, covered by redeeming love. I’m walkin’ in the freedom only grace could ever bring, Hallelujah, I’m forgiven – and my heart can’t help but sing.
