Whitecross - To My Surprise lyrics

rate me

There was time when I was looking for something real hard<br />

I’m not quite sure what it was, but I think…<br />

I think it was peace with God<br />

<br />

What I longed for were bluer skies<br />

Somethin’ to fill the emptiness deep inside<br />

Just when my life seemed to unravel again<br />

I knew I was fallin’ I needed a friend<br />

<br />

I wasn’t lookin’ for a love so real<br />

I never thought I could reach the sky<br />

Then when I least expected a reason why<br />

To my surprise<br />

<br />

I better stay focused on what’s gonna last<br />

The Lamb of God erased the sins of my past<br />

If I just lock into Jesus each day<br />

He promised to help me and carry the weight<br />

<br />

And now that I know he paid for my sin<br />

I’m washed in his blood, this new life begins<br />

<br />

I wasn’t lookin’ for a love so real<br />

I never thought I could reach the sky<br />

Then when I least expected a reason why<br />

To my surprise<br />

<br />

No, I never expected to know the most high<br />

To lose the weight of my sins so I could fly so high<br />

<br />

I wasn’t lookin’ for a love so real<br />

I never thought I could reach the sky<br />

Then when I least expected a reason why<br />

To my surprise<br />

<br />

I wasn’t lookin’ for a love so real<br />

I never thought I could reach the sky<br />

Then when I least expected a reason why<br />

To my surprise<br />

<br />

You opened my eyes<br />

Oh what a surprise<br />

You opened, you opened, you opened my eyes
