Blessed Indeed
Into the dark
I was cursed; my soul black
Before I lived
Already was dead; don't disbelieve
For long twas dark and cold
For a thousandth mile I walked alone
Too bad Adam led my fall
I was cursed indeed to fall
Pain ravaged my soul
Unto anger my heart was sold
The devil led me on
Into his pit I fell on and on
My heart was dark and wicked
Everyone I met I maltreated
I had no joy; so I couldn't give it
I had no hope cos I lost it
This unpleasant life; I now live it
God's message came; I couldn't hold it
For I was cursed in indeed
Until now
To Him I bow
Who blessed me indeed
Whose love cleansed me beneath
For he took my heart and gave me His, no pain.
Took my hate and gave me love, no shame.
He took my life and made it His, He reigns
Now I am blessed indeed
A chosen generation
A royal priesthood
Joy of a thousand generations
A blessing to my neighbourhood
Blessed beyond measure
Made for His pleasure
By His word that I now treasure
I am blessed indeed
Morning again,
Night before.
His blood transforms me more and more
For what then am i?
I am blessed indeed
No more am I cursed
No more am I lost
Behind Him; as I bear my own cross
I shed no tear; no loss
For this is the life
That He has called us to live
This is His word that we must now believe
For we are blessed indeed
I was cursed; my soul black
Before I lived
Already was dead; don't disbelieve
For long twas dark and cold
For a thousandth mile I walked alone
Too bad Adam led my fall
I was cursed indeed to fall
Pain ravaged my soul
Unto anger my heart was sold
The devil led me on
Into his pit I fell on and on
My heart was dark and wicked
Everyone I met I maltreated
I had no joy; so I couldn't give it
I had no hope cos I lost it
This unpleasant life; I now live it
God's message came; I couldn't hold it
For I was cursed in indeed
