It Started as a Story

Just a glimpse of when God started working in my life and everything He's done since. Enjoy!

It started out as a story
That I heard when I was 5 years old.
And with the faith of a child
I believed every single word.
Of the stories of a king,
Who sets captives free
And gives all His grace
To you and to me.
Of a Father
Who loves us
And the kingdom
He gave us.
And the blow that shattered the chains
Healed the broken weeping soul.
And it all started as a story
That I heard when I was 5 years old.
It began as a little stumble
That set me on the path
And kept going with a shove
That brought my demons back.
But now every time I stumble
He keeps on pulling me back
And though don't deserve it,
He keeps on fixing all my cracks.
'Cause He's a Father
Who loves us.
And the kingdom
He gave us.
I can still see the blow
That shattered all my chains
And healed my broken weeping soul.
Because it all started with a story
That I heard when I was 5 years old.
