I remember the shadows
Like ghosts in the dark
I can still taste the hopelessness
That haunted my heart
But in my desperation
Your mercy walked in
And I watched as my chains
Turned to dust in Your hands
I cried like a newborn that night (that night)
Oh-oh, and in those tears I was baptized

When You showed up
I was headed straight for the gallows
(For the gallows)
But then You saved me
And now I'm living proof of a Savior
Oh, what a Savior
Oh, what a Savior

So I thank You for rescue
For setting me free
And Lord, I even thank You for the times I couldn't breathe
'Cause I learned that I need You
I learned You're enough
And my life is now the evidence of Your amazing love

When You showed up
I was headed straight for the gallows
(For the gallows, for the gallows)
But then You saved me
And now I'm living proof of a Savior
Oh, what a Savior
Oh, what a Savior, (ooh)

No matter how far I run
No matter how hard I fall
You're the One who shows up
Cause that's just who You are
And every single fear
Trying to hold me down
It's been broken by Your love
Yeah, and it don't hold me now, no

When You showed up
I was headed straight for the gallows
(For the gallows)
But then You saved me
And now I'm living proof of a Savior
Oh, what a Savior (oh, what a Savior)

When You showed up
I was headed straight for the gallows
(For the gallows, for the gallows)
But then You saved me (let's go)
And now I'm living proof of a Savior
Oh, what a Savior
Oh, what a Savior
Oh, what a Savior
