Lyrics of I Was, But God – ELEVATION RHYTHM

Can I give a little testimony
How l’m only here because of His hand
The enemy tried to end my story
But God had a different plan

See He took my sin and broke my bondage
And He raised me up right outta that grave
So I can’t hold my hallelujah
I’m so glad that Jesus saves

I was sinking
But I’m singing now
I was, but God
But God had a different plan
I was drowning
But I’m dancing now
I was, but God
But God had a different plan

I’m not praisin because I’m perfect
I’m praisin Him cause He brought me through
I worship cause His name is worthy
And I’ve seen what His grace can do
And if He did it for me He can do it for you

Amazing Grace how sweet the sound
That saved a broken wretch like me
And I was once was lost but now I’m found
Was blind but now my heart can see
When we’ve been there ten thousand years
Bright and shining as the sun
We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise
Than when we’ve first begun

I was sinking
But I’m singing now
I was, but God
But God had a different plan
I was drowning
But I’m dancing now
I was, but God
But God had a different plan
All praise to the Great I Am
