Somebody threw all my hope out the door,
But I’ll be taking it back, I wouldn’t settle for that,
Push me out, knock me down
And I will get up again, I’ve got a power within that won’t stop.
Won’t stop.
And now the name by which I was formerly known
May it rest in peace, ‘cause it’s formally gone,
God blessed the moment I surrendered to this revelation.
All the criminal things that I’ve ever done,
May they rest in peace, ‘cause they’re forever gone,
God blessed the moment I surrendered, when you sent your revelation down
Somebody’s shaking me down knocked around
Reminding me of disgrace, they throw it up in my face,
Turn the knife in my side,
And I will get up again, I’ve got a power within that won’t stop.
Won’t stop.
And now the name by which I was formerly known
May it rest in peace, ‘cause it’s formally gone,
God blessed the moment I surrendered to this revelation.
All the criminal things that I’ve ever done,
May they rest in peace, ‘cause they’re forever gone,
God blessed the moment I surrendered, when you sent your revelation down
Sent it down
Now
And now the name by which I was formerly known
May it rest in peace, ‘cause it’s formally gone,
God blessed the moment I surrendered to this revelation.
All the criminal things that I’ve ever done,
May they rest in peace, ‘cause they’re forever gone,
God blessed the moment I surrendered, when you sent your revelation down
