The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I'm not the way I was meant to be
I carry chains though I've been set free
I'm a broken man healing, a sinner now believing
That I'm not the way I was meant to be
There's gotta be a difference, there's gotta be a change
You love me as I am, but You called me from the grave
Now that I've met Your mercy, I can't just stay the same
There's gotta be a difference, there's gotta be a change
I need holiness to consume my life
Want a softer heart, wanna lose my pride
Let every single action be filled with Your compassion
Oh, holiness, consume my life
There's gotta be a difference, there's gotta be a change
You love me as I am, but You called me from the grave
Now that I've met Your mercy, I can't just stay the same
There's gotta be a difference, there's gotta be a change
There's gotta be a difference, there's gotta be a change
Redemption's calling, calling out my name
Was born into my sin, but that's not where I have to stay
I don't need excuses, oh, but what I need is grace
To be only Yours today
There's got to be a change
There's got to be a change
There's gotta be a difference, there's gotta be a change
You love me as I am, but You called me from the grave
Now that I've met Your mercy, I can't just stay the same
There's gotta be a difference, there's gotta be a change
There's gotta be a change
Gotta be a difference in me
There's gotta be, oh, there's gotta be a change
Oh, there's gotta be a change
