Spencer Kane Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ungrateful, selfish, I was ashamed.
No matter how many times I walked away.
Your loving arms were always there to welcome me.
You
You forgave me, and You made me brand new.
You
You laid down Your life, You never turned away.
Even though I betrayed You.
You've been, my friend
Even though my heart wasn't with You.
You showed compassion
My time was ever too late.
No matter how many times I walked away.
Your loving arms were always there to welcome
me.
You
You forgave me, and You made me brand new.
You
Yea You love me, and so now I choose You.
You laid down Your life, You never turned away.
Even though I betrayed You.
