My life was in shackles, my spirit broken down
The trees that once soared had come crashing to the ground
But when the Savior came knocking and when I let Him in
He picked up the pieces, made me over again
Ever since He came (since Jesus came)
And pardoned every sin
I'm not the same (I'm not the same)
No, I've been born again
I'll tell the world (I'll tell the world)
Of peace and love I've found
And sing of true joy that abounds ever since He came
His hands made the heavens, His word made the sea
His voice sets the compass on the face of deep
But when I knelt at the altar and from sadness I cried
His hand gently wiped every tear from my eye
Ever since He came (since Jesus came)
And pardoned every sin
I'm not the same (I'm not the same)
No, I've been born again
I'll tell the world (I'll tell the world)
Of peace and love I've found
And sing of true joy that abounds ever since He came
Since Jesus came and pardoned every sin
I'm not the same, no, I've been born again
I'll tell the world of peace and love I've found
And sing of true joy that abounds ever since He came
Since the Savior came
