Before I knew Jesus

Before I knew Jesus

All I knew was all my shame

Unloved was my life story

Unworthy was my name

Had no future

Just a long and broken past

But I'm standing here today to say

Jesus changed all that

Now I know freedom, now I know hope

Now I know love that will never let go

Forever forgiven, forever I'm changed

And there's no going back to the day

Before I knew Jesus

There was no such thing as a bigger plan

No redemption for my failures

No such thing as a second chance

Before I knew Jesus

The good was never good enough

But He set me free to see

That I don't have to measure up

Now I know freedom, now I know hope

Now I know love that will never let go

Forever forgiven, forever I'm changed

And there's no going back to the day

Before I knew Jesus

And now my Savior

He knows me, He knows me

And now my Savior

He calls me His own

And now my Savior

He holds me, He holds me

And in my Savior

My heart has a home

Before I meet Jesus

And I look Him in the eye

I want everyone to see

He's the one who changed my life

Now I know freedom, now I know hope

Now I know love that will never let go

Forever forgiven, forever I'm changed

And there's no going back to the day (no going back)

And there's no going back to the day

Before I knew Jesus, hmmm

'Cause now I know Jesus
