[Verse 1]
Picture this, an eight year old kid growing up in Georgia
Having a hard time with the world that he was seeing
Coming home from school, scared to death and always wondering
What kind of mood his dad would be in
That kind of home can do a number on you
Mom and dad broke up, and I guess I broke too
I grew up thinking nothing good could ever come from a story like mine

[Chorus]
But who turns a broken dream into a life redeemed (A life redeemed)
Who can turn your worst defeat into your victory
Who saw me where I was and led me where I stand
My life is living proof that only Jesus can

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh

[Verse 2]
Everybody's got that hurt they wished that never happened
Everybody's got that pain they wish they could undo
But wounds become scars and scars become stories
And when it comes to the story of you

[Chorus]
Who turns a broken dream into a life redeemed
Who can turn your worst defeat into your victory
Who saw me where I was and led me where I stand
My life is living proof that only Jesus can
[Bridge]
Only Jesus can save me, only Jesus can change me
Only Jesus can take me, from lost to found
Hallelujah, I'm singing, there's no stealing my freedom
He picked up all the pieces, look at me now

[Chorus]
Who turns a broken dream into a life redeemed
Who can turn your worst defeat into your victory
Who saw me where I was and led me where I stand
My life is living proof that only Jesus can

[Post-Chorus]
Oh (Ooh, ooh)
Oh, thank You, Jesus (Ooh, ooh)
Come on

[Outro]
Only Jesus can save me (Ooh)
Only Jesus can change me (Ooh)
Only You can change me, Lord
Only Jesus can take me (Ooh) (Oh)
From lost to found (Ooh)
Hallelujah, I'm singing (Ooh)
There's no stealing my freedom (Ooh)
There's no stealing my freedom
My life is living proof that only Jesus can
