[Verse 1]
This was not my idea
No I would not have thought of this
Though I admit there was evidence
Surely not enough to convince
That a man was not his own
And there was more than day to day
How there could be a promise of hope
And healing that the soul might live again
[Chorus]
Never would've bought it
Never would've thought it could be
Never would've held it
Until it took hold of me, hold of me
Now I've found freedom
Now mercy holds my hand
It took the grace of One living
To save this dying man
[Verse 2]
Now as I look at these pagеs
I see a story told in whole
Not just segments or phrasеs
But a story of the soul
And now a man was not his own
And there was more than day to day
How there can be a promise of hope
And healing that the soul might live again
[Chorus]
Never would've bought it
Never would've thought it could be
Never would've held it
Until it took hold of me, hold of me
Now I've found freedom
Now mercy holds my hand
It took the grace of One living
To save this dying man
[Post-Chorus]
Ah, ah, ah
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Chorus]
Never would've bought it
Never would've thought it could be
Never would've held it
Until it took hold of me, hold of me
Now I've found freedom
Now mercy holds my hand
It took the grace of One living
To save this dying man
[Outro]
Never would've bought it
Never would've thought it could be
