I was eighteen and running wild. Drinkin’ partyin’ a prodigal child. Told my old man I’d never be back Took the cross off of my back Hit the dirt road track didn’t look back. Yeah I was wasted on riotous livin’ couldn’t get enough of all my sinin’ Till I got in trouble with the law The next day my mama called She prayed God give me conviction I swear a weight fell on me that never lifted I kept runnin but God had my number Depression hit deep and I started to wonder Came in one night and I was so depressed. Seen my best friend with my ex so I grabbed that 44 And I was out the door, Climbed up in that old Hemi stuck the gun to my head and touched the trigger In the darkest night of my soul a voice came rushing through it all. Chorus He said I have a purpose fur you. I have a purpose fur you. I can wash you new. And change everything… I woke up the birds was singing Sounded like a choir ringing Sun was shining just for me. Life filled my lungs and I believed. Told them boys I don’t smoke dope no more But there’s a high they could explore Didn’t know it but I was preaching Won some and lost some, was blind but now I’m seeing Came down that old dirt road, My old man was sitting on the porch, just like how the story goes. I hugged him and said I’m sorry dad. What happened to you they asked? I told em Chorus God said I have a purpose for you. I have a purpose for you. I can wash you new. And change everything! Yeah he changed everything A year later I stood shaking like a leaf, in front of a church filled with the redeemed. Opened my mouth and started to speak, to the hurting the broken the ones like me and I told em: God has a purpose for you. God has a purpose for you. He has a purpose for you. He can wash you new. And change everything! God has a purpose for you. He has a purpose for you. He has a purpose for you. He can wash you new. And change everything! Change everything. He has plans for you. Give him your life and be made new He’ll change everything…
