Fred Hammond
Second Chance
I know I've done enough wrong
To last a lifetime
Can't say I've given You my best
And when it came time
To walk the chalk line
I knew You weren't impressed

You looked beyond my faults
Straight to my heart
Where no one else could see
Your plan for me
Only time could reveal
But You still love me
It's so hard to believe, hey

I can't believe
Looking at the circumstance
You picked me up
And you gave a second chance
I was forgiven
Without question or reply
Erase the evidence
I have a second chance

I had a habit of pointing little fingers
Blaming others for my mediocrity
Friends would leave
But the problems would still be there
Then I found the problem was with me
There were even times
Time in my life
When I may have accused You
It seemed at those times
You chose to love me
Love me more, even though You knew

I can't believe
Looking at the circumstance
You picked me up
And you gave a second chance
I was forgiven
Without question or reply
Erase the evidence
I have a second chance

Destined to die
I had no chance of being free
Tried and convicted You
This plea is my case
And You waive my penalty

I can't believe
Looking at the circumstance
You picked me up
And you gave a second chance
I was forgiven
Without question or reply
Erase the evidence
I have a second chance
A second chance You desired to give
I should be dead, but You allowed me to live
You gave me a second chance
I'm gonna shout, I'm gonna dance, dance, dance
(A second chance)

I'm gonna lift my hands
(Lift your hands)
To live again
(To live again)
A second chance
(A second chance)
You gave me

You gave me a second chance
(Lift your hands)
I gotta lift up my hands
(To live again)
You gave me a chance to live
(A second chance)
To You, my life I give You
(A second chance)

I gotta take it, I gotta take it
Because You gave a second chance
I gotta live just for You
I've been given a life brand new
Destined to die
No way to be free
Tried and convicted
But You waived a penalty

Hey, oh, yeah
A second chance
You decided to give
I was dead, but now I live

You gave me a second chance
I can live again
Oh, You gave me

A second chance
You gave me a second chance
A second chance
You gave me a second chance
A second chance
A second chance
