I once was an outcast No one knew my name I once was a dead man Buried in shame I once was an orphan With no place to go But the Father in mercy Said, "Son, you are worthy" And He welcomed me home This is my testimony This is my sacred ground Jesus the cornerstone I build my life around His grace has made me worthy His mercy welcomed me This is my story The story of one redeemed ♪ Where once there was darkness He turned on the light Where once there was sorrow Hope came to life For when Jesus called me The stone rolled away My tomb was opened My chains were broken And love saved the day This is my testimony This is my sacred ground Jesus the cornerstone I build my life around His grace has made me worthy His mercy welcomed me This is my story The story of one redeemed ♪ No I am not ashamed To say He is the way If God raised Him from the dead And He's coming back, He's coming back No I am not ashamed To say He is the way If God raised Him from the dead And He's coming back, He's coming back This is my testimony This is my sacred ground Jesus the cornerstone I build my life around His grace has made me worthy His mercy welcomed me This is my story The story of one redeemed Redeemed I'm redeemed
