[Talking] Christ through faith I talked to a cat the other day And he was like; "Man I really wanna come to Christ But I gotta clean my life up first, get my sins together" I told em, I used to think that way too I thought I had to change myself before I could come to Christ But Christ changed me Let me tell you my story, it starts like this
[Verse One] It's 5:46 in the mornin', tossin' and turnin' Chest burnin', sermons in my head keep reocurrin' Havin' visions in my head of a kid Cryin' at the feet of the Father, for all the wrong things that he did Now I'm sweatin' in my sheets can't sleep My mind keeps tellin' me I'm six feet deep Don't remind me, even though I'm still alive I can't tell The way I'm living my life I feel I'm going to hell God they telling me I should accept you That you had to leave the world, cause the world left you Reason I can't change, like a mystery to me So I make believe there really is a heaven for a G Even though they say you loved the world so much, you shed ya blood God I feel I'm too messed up for love They tell me come as I am but I smell like smoke My whole lifes full of sin cause it's all I know The bible told me that you died for my sins If I believe in Christ, it'll save me from the end But I'm scared to ask you, to save me my heart So evil, I got thoughts, that's full of hatred hurtin' people I thought at first I had to clean up my life Now I'm hearin' I just need to cling to the light I'm ready to do it, but Lord I pray you understand My life is a mess, will you take me as I am
[Chorus] Will you take me as I am I know the way I'm living is wrong But I can't change on my own, trying to make it alone I wonder, how could you love me when my life so ugly But you came down and died for me
Will you take me as I am I know the way I'm living is wrong But I can't change on my own, trying to make it alone I wonder, how could you love me when my life so ugly But you came down and died for me Will you take me as I am
[Verse Two] I'm sick and tired of trying to me the man, my daddy never taught me to be I'm grown up now, life ain't what I thought it would be I made many mistakes in my past I can't fix Now I'm staring at this crusifix tatted on my wrist Is it true what they telling me, am I just crazy Did ya bleed on the cross, for my sins to save me But why would ya die for me My whole life I've been working for Satan, while He fed lies to me And now I'm hearing too much, trying to get a true touch Of a love that can change me, I'm all screwed up Figure Hell is what I deserve But your word says we all fall short so I guess we all outta burn Teach me I wanna learn How you could save a wretch like me, before death says it's my turn I think I finally understand No matter my past, you'll still take me as I am
[Chorus]
[Verse Three] My father had a few last words to give I be telling people the reason to live The reason to die, united with the King in the sky This life is passing us by, I got no reason to lie You'll never give the world enough, they'll hunger for more They figure there ways are nuthin to the wonderous lord More security than the man that left you More love than the moms who kept you He'll always accept you Be everything your supposed to Let Christ rule ya heart, mind, body and soul cause He chose you And if the world don't know you It don't matter you're Gods child and he'll never disown you Ya purpose on earth is far from worthless That's why ya glorified like ya life's been purchased And it don't matter if the world don't seen us We still mean the world to Jesus
[Chorus]
[Talking] Yeah, we're saved by grace through faith It's not works Ain't nuthin you can do, ain't nuthin I can do That could get us this grace salavation that we got man It's only Christ So if you feel like you gotta clean yourself up Before you can come to Him Forget it Just come to Him He'll take you as you are, and he'll change YOU From the inside, out
