I woke up today with the sun shining down
And I breathed in new mercies once more
I felt like a rich man with more than his share
Like I'd not been a beggar before
But if you knew my past you might never believe
When you see me now how far I've come
I'm a brand new creation, a work of salvation
Believe me it’s nothing I've done
I'm the last one worthy and the first one grateful
To even walk through the doors of this place
So don't let me ever think I could belong here
I know who I am without grace
But I love the heart of the savior who leans
To the guilty, the broken and hurting
Who would willingly go all the way to the cross
Just to die for the last one worthy
If you knew the heart behind walls I had built
I was crippled with shame by my sin
Then you'd understand this great joy that I have now
That Jesus has taken me in
Who can know more about grace than the one
Who most needed God’s mercy divine
And for all of my sorrows, God filled my tomorrows
With a hope I thought I'd never find
