Before Christ was in my life I lived among the walking dead Nothing but evil and sinful thoughts dwelled in my head Life was just a game that I liked to play And I was going to live all of my days in that way It was like that until I had those cold cuffs slapped upon my wrists Looking up at my parents wondering how I came to this Then for a while I just hung my head in shame Because even though I was an accomplace I only had myself to blame I remembered the slain and incarcerated and knew this wasn't the life for me That's when I turned to the Lord and Christainity Baptized and had my sins washed away Then I was able to see a brighter and better day New doors were opened right before my eyes Finally given the world without living lies Able to be truthful with myself Able to live each day happy to have my health Knowing that for every dark night there's a brighter day And knowing with the Lord on my side everything's okay
