Music Monday: Born Again

I was down on my luck, I was stuck
I was running ’round broken-hearted
I was sinking so fast
I couldn’t last falling apart

And You could’ve ran away
Leaving me there in my shame
Leaving me fighting my pain
But You made a better way
Oh, oh, oh

I’ve been saved
Goodbye to the sinner, I’m held by the Father above
No more shame, for
I’m out of the desert and drowned in the power of love
Amazing grace, my soul set free
Ain’t no grave, got a hold on me
I’m born again, born again
Washed by the water, I’m clean

My eyes have been open
You’re showing me all of my life in a new light
Every step, every breath
Like it’s the first time

You could’ve ran away
Leaving me there in my shame
Leaving me fighting my pain
But You made a better way
Oh, oh, oh

I’ve been saved
Goodbye to the sinner, I’m held by the Father above
No more shame, for
I’m out of the desert and drowned in the power of love
Amazing grace, my soul set free
Ain’t no grave, got a hold on me
I’m born again, born again
Washed by the water, I’m clean

Preacher told me the good, good news (oh-oh, oh-oh)
Went way down deep in the river blue (oh-oh, oh-oh)
Preacher told me the good, good news (oh-oh, oh-oh)
And ever since my heart met You

I’ve been saved
Goodbye to the sinner, I’m held by the Father above
No more shame
For I’m out of the desert and drowned in the power of love
Amazing grace, my soul set free
Ain’t no grave, got a hold on me (no, no, no)
I’m born again, born again
Washed by the water, I’m clean (yeah)

(Washed by the water, I’m washed by the water
Washed by the water, I’m washed by the water)
Amazing grace, my soul set free
Ain’t no grave, got a hold on me
I’m born again, born again
Washed by the water, I’m clean

Music Monday: Born Again

Last week I shared the song Reckless Love. Today I’m sharing another song by Cory Asbury, “Born Again”:

[Verse 1]
Take me by the hand and
Walk with me by quiet streams
I need to hear the wind and
Feel the ground beneath my feet

[Chorus]
‘Cause You’re the only friend
Who can set my soul at ease
And in the quiet pride of my Father’s eyes
I remember who I am
And when I feel the warmth of my Father’s smile
Feels like I’ve been born again
I’ve been born again

[Verse 2]
And realign my heart and
Help me keep the first things first
And let me hear Your whisper
And God, I hang on every word
