[Intro] [Verse 1] I stood condemned, a life of shame, A thief with nothing to my name. On that cross, I felt the weight, Of every sin, of every mistake. But in the darkness, a voice so clear, Said words of hope thought I’d never hear: “Today, with Me, you’ll surely be,” And suddenly, grace set me free. [Chorus] How did I get here? I can’t explain, Not by my deeds, not by my name. I only know I was lost, so sinful, And I’m here because of the Man in the middle. [Verse 2] They asked me why I belong inside, With saints and angels glorified. I said, “It wasn’t what I’d done, It’s not who I was, but where I’ve come from. He hung between the two of us, Crowned in thorns, yet full of love. Though I deserved to fall apart, His mercy reached my broken heart.” [Chorus] How did I get here? I can’t explain, Not by my deeds, not by my name. I only know I was lost, so sinful, And I’m here because of the Man in the middle. [Bridge] The last thing He did, before He died, Was rescue me and give me life. He turned my cross into a door, To a place where pain is no more. [Chorus] How did I get here? I can’t explain, Not by my deeds, not by my name. I only know I was lost, so sinful, And I’m here because of the Man in the middle. [Outro] So if you’re wondering if hope remains, Just look to the One who bore the pain. For every sinner, there’s still a way, Through the Man in the middle, who still saves today. [Piano Instrumental End Song]
