Say Amen

It's only by God's grace I'm standing here today.


Video: Matthew West "Amen"

Hey hey preacher man
Do you mind if I borrow that mic? (Uh-huh!)
You been talking 'bout
How everybody got a story
Here is mine
I was so lost, I was so lost
But now I'm found, yeah, yeah

Hey hey preacher man
Let's take a walk down by the river
Let the holy water wash over me
'Cause now that I've been delivered
I want the whole world
To know that I'm a new man now
And it's only by God's grace
I'm standing here today

If you're feeling what I'm feeling
Let me hear you say amen
If you're a new creation, amen
If you got that feel good in your soul
That hope that won't let you go
If you're feeling what I'm feeling
Let me hear you say amen

Every time I look back over my shoulder
I can see the life He saved me from
Every time I look back over my shoulder
I can see the life He saved me from
Thank God
Hey Church, now you see
This little light of mine
Well, my question is a simple one (Who's next?)
Come get it loud
I'm talking one by
I'm talking one by, one by one
Gonna testify
That it's only by God's grace
We're standing here today

If you're feeling what I'm feeling
Let me hear you say amen
If you're a new creation, amen
If you got that feel good in your soul
That hope that won't let you go
If you're feeling what I'm feeling
Let me hear you say amen

If you're a new creation, amen
If you got that feel good in your soul
That hope that won't let you go
If you're feeling what I'm feeling
Let me hear you say amen

New Life From Nothing
2 Corinthians 5:17-21 This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun! 18 And all of this is a gift from God, who brought us back to Himself through Christ. And God has given us this task of reconciling people to Him.

19 For God was in Christ, reconciling the world to Himself, no longer counting people's sins against them. And He gave us this wonderful message of reconciliation. 20 So we are Christ's ambassadors; God is making His appeal through us.

We speak for Christ when we plead, "Come back to God!" 21 For God made Christ, who never sinned, to be the offering for our sin, so that we could be made right with God through Christ.
God took my nothing and created a new life, I didn't have anything good to help him out, what you see now was done completely on his own. My pride, my old passions, the things that I thought were important are all gone, God made a new man out of nothing. Amen!
