and he knew just what to do
he solved them all
he can do it just for you, too
i opened my heart and he came in
what a wonderful change in my life he caused
since he came into my heart
and he knew just what to do
he solved them all
he can do it just for you, too
i opened my heart and he came in
what a wonderful change in my life he caused
since he came into my heart
when i was down, deep down in sin
jesus, he came and he took me in
i will never, never forget
what the lord has done for me
he picks me up when i'm fallin down
he placed my feet on a solid ground
i will never, never forget
that the lord has made change
told jesus my problems
and he knew just what to do
he solved them all
he can do it just for you, too
i opened my heart and he came in
what a wonderful change in my life he caused
since he came into my heart

i opened my heart and he came in
what a wonderful change in my life he caused
since he came into my heart
since he came in heart
i'm glad that i've changed
