I Was Born



I Was Born
Author: Mark V. Markov

It's in Your way
It's in Your life
It's in Your touch
This feeling inside of my heart
It always draws me to You
Father, Son, Holy Spirit
O Elohim my Creator

I was born
I was born
To know of You
I was born
I was born to realize
I was born
I was born to believe

Seeing the everlasting truth
To accept You
My savior Jesus Christ
Into my life
To become born again

I was born
I was born
To obtain eternal life
Through You
O Lord Jesus Christ

Seeing the meaning of life
Is to obtain eternal life
Of joy and happiness
Seeing the meaning of life
Is to obtain eternal life
Through You my Lord

Jesus Christ O Lamb of God
Jesus Christ my Savior
Jesus Christ my Redeemer
Jesus Christ O my Lord

It's in Your way
It's in Your life
It's in Your touch
This feeling inside of my heart
It always draws me to You

I was born
I was born
To know of You
I was born
I was born to realize
I was born
I was born to believe

Seeing the everlasting truth
To accept You
My savior Jesus Christ
Into my life
Becoming born again

I was born
I was born
To obtain eternal life
Through You
O Lord Jesus Christ

Seeing the meaning of life
Is to obtain eternal life
Of joy and happiness
Seeing the meaning of life
Is to obtain eternal life
Through You my Lord

Jesus Christ O Lamb of God
Jesus Christ my Savior
Jesus Christ my Redeemer
Jesus Christ O my Lord...
