Lyrics
Prelude
(Choir humming—rich, stacked harmonies with piano and soft trumpet)
(Lead, softly)
Before the night turned into day
I was stumbling through the pain
Lost and broken, worn and tired
Longing just to find my way
(Piano builds, subtle drums join in)
Every shadow over me
Tried to hold me down so low
But You reached out through the storm
You didn’t let me go
(Choir swells, claps begin)
You carried me, You carried me
You never let me fall
You held my life, You called my name
You heard my every call
(Lead, speaking, energy rising)
Come on, choir, can we tell them?
Chorus
Lord, You saved me! Pulled me from the fire
Lifted up my spirit, took me so much higher
Every chain is broken, now I’m running free
Lord, You saved me! Gave me victory!
(Yeah, You saved me!)
Post-Chorus
Oh oh, You saved me!
Yeah, yeah!
Verse 2
I didn't have a melody, I didn't have a song
Everything I tried to do was coming out all wrong
But now I got a rhythm that is beating in my chest
I put the past behind me 'cause You handled all the rest
The guilt is in the gutter and the shame is out the door
I’m dancing in the favor that I never knew before!
Pre-Chorus
But then I heard a voice (Yeah!) cut through the noise (Come on!)
You gave me back my life, You gave me back my choice
I stepped out of the grave (Say what?) I’m ready to rejoice!
Chorus
Lord, You saved me! Pulled me from the fire
Lifted up my spirit, took me so much higher
Every chain is broken, now I’m running free
Lord, You saved me! Gave me victory!
(Yeah, You saved me!)
Post-Chorus
Oh oh, You saved me!
Yeah, yeah!
Final Chorus
(Choir explodes—handclaps, horns blasting)
Lord, You saved me! Pulled me from the fire!
Lifted up my spirit, took me so much higher!
Every chain is broken, now I’m running free!
Lord, You saved me! Gave me victory!
Oh, Lord, You saved me!
Vamp
(Choir call and response—repeat, build)
(Lead): You saved me!
(Choir): You saved me!
(Lead): You healed me!
(Choir): You healed me!
(Lead): You freed me!
(Choir): You freed me!
(Lead): You kept me!
(Choir): You kept me!
(Lead): I thank You!
(Choir): I thank You!
(Lead): I praise You!
(Choir): I praise You!
(Choir all together, swelling)
I’m never turning back, no never turning back
Lord, You saved me, and I’m never turning back!
