  • I'm a believer
    I paid for my sin
    Stand over the water
    Watch my ship come in
    I was blind but now I see
    It was right there in front of me
    I was the reason
    For the perfect mess
    I covered up my failure and called it happiness
    I been untrue
    I been unkind
    Then you come in like the lightnin' from the sky
    Pickin' up the pieces in the middle of the night
    I cried oh baby
    I'm broken
    There's a price you're gonna pay
    You jumped in the fire, you saved me any way

    [Chorus]
    Open up the up the sky
    All gather around
    Praise the lord and
    Take a look at what I found
    (I got a) love that's as big as raging storm
    I got walls coming down that I need no more
    I got a sign on the door that says
    Lonely don't live here anymore

    There was a moment I prayed for my soul
    (I was) Crawlin' and hiding in a
    Deep dark hole
    I cried in the morning
    I cried in the night
    I was a drifter
    Caught in the wind
    Prepared to lose but I was
    Tryin' to win and I was breakin' all the records on givin' in
    Then you came in like the lightnin' from the sky
    Picking up the pieces in the middle of the night
    I cried oh baby I'm broken
    There's a price you're gonna pay
    You jumped in the fire, you saved me any way

    [Chorus]

    Then you came round while I was walkin' on the wire
    Stood there underneath me
    And you saved me from the fire
    And God might be the king
    In the land of the free
    But you're the blessed Saviour
    You're the one I need

    [Chorus] Writer/s: CHAMBERS
