Wretch No More Songtext

Wretch No More Songtext
I was born in the river bed
Got my mama's eyes and my daddy's head
Chain me to a troubled start
With wanderin' feet and restless heart
The only thing I knew was loss
Until I met the rugged cross
That's when Jesus recon-ciled
And the prodigal became a child

Amazing Grace, What love divine
That saw a slave, wrapped up in chains, And said He's mine
How sweet the day, Love won the war
Heaven came down, said I've been found, I'm a wretch no more

To this day I can't explain
Why He chose to make the trade
He's beautiful my shame and scorn
His victory for my crown of thorns
And on the days I lose my step
And troubles make my heart forget
His kindness brings me back again
To the place where mercy took me in, ohhhhhhh

Amazing Grace, What love divine
That saw a slave, wrapped up in chains, And said He's mine
How sweet the day, Love won the war
Heaven came down, said I've been found, I'm a wretch no more

Hal--haleluuuujahhhhh--halelujah
Out of the gutter, out of the trash, you called me beau-ti-ful
out of the darkness and, shame of the past
You called me to be yours

Amazing Grace, What love divine
That saw this slave, wrapped up in chains, And said He's mine ohhhh ohh
How sweet the day, Love won the war
And heaven came down, and said I've been found
Heaven came down, and placed on the ground
And heaven came down, and said you've been found
I'm a wretch-no--------more.
