Rhett Walker - Where I Could've Been

To Rate
verse 1
I was a small town joke without hope
Just trying to find my way
I was the fool that lived with the consequence
Of all of my mistakes
I was a guilty man in my sunday best
Sweatin' in all my shame
If the road i was on hadn't led headlong
Into amazing grace

chorus
I would've been a lost cause
Would've been written off
But there's a hope that don't give in
I should've been a long gone
Nowhere to call home
But there's a peace that never ends
When i couldn't see
He rescued me
Oh, ain't it just like jesus to love me where i am
And not just leave me where i could've been

verse 2
I'd still be wakin' up
Down on my luck
Sleeping in the bed i'd made
I was as bad as the worst
My name was a curse
Just wastin my whole life away
And then one day, i got outta my way
Gave the good lord above my life
If it wasn't for that rugged cross
And the mercy of jesus christ
chorus
I would've been a lost cause
I would've been written off
But there's a hope that don't give in
I should've been a long gone
Nowhere to call home
But there's a peace that never ends
When i couldn't see
He rescued me
Oh, ain't it just like jesus to love me where i am
And not just leave me where i could've been
Leave me where i could've been

bridge
When i'm looking back on my crazy past
Only thing i've got figured out
The trails i blazed, mistakes i made
Doesn't change what he's doing right now

chorus
I would've been a lost cause
I would've been written off
But there's a hope that don't give in
Should've been a long gone
Nowhere to call home
But there's a peace that never ends
When i couldn't see
He rescued me
Oh, ain't it just like jesus to love me where i am
And not just leave me where i could've been
