Lyrics

I was awoken in the wee hours of morning
As the Darkness still held to the night
I lied awake with the thoughts of my savior
And I could not sleep
I just had to write

Only Jesus Could show me a mercy
Only Jesus Could calm all my fears
Only Jesus Could give me a purpose
Only Jesus Could restore the years

Now I was not always the man you see standing
But I am not the man you thought that you knew
I should be buried or scattered in ashes
But then He reached out and made me brand new

Only Jesus Could show me a mercy
Only Jesus Could calm all my fears
Only Jesus Could give me a purpose
Only Jesus Could restore the years

I am not the man you see standing
I am not the man you thought that you knew
I should be buried or scattered in ashes
But then He reached out and made me brand new

Only Jesus Could show me a mercy
Only Jesus Could calm all my fears
Only Jesus Could give me a purpose
Only Jesus Could restore the years
