Testify
(Sometimes)
Sometimes you just won't understand why life is the way it is
Things don't always go the way you plan them
But I believe (I believe), God and time are synonymous
And through time God reveals all things
(Be still) Be still
(Stand in love) Stand in love
(Pay attention) Pay attention

I just wanna testify (I just wanna testify)
I just wanna testify
I just wanna testify
I just wanna testify (Testify)

When I look back on my life
(When I look back on my life)
I shudder when I think of the danger I put myself in
But amazing grace always carried me to safety
Knowing that I'd go back to the same place again and again
No one could ever love me, the way that you do
(In spirit) In spirit, mind and body I surrender myself daily to you

I just wanna testify
I just wanna testify
I just wanna testify
I just gotta testify
So sweet the journey (So sweet the journey)
When you learn to love yourself, accept yourself
Forgive yourself, respect yourself
Believe in yourself, be yourself
With amazing grace as your constant friend
I am free of anger
I am free of fear
And my mind is at ease
I don't regret yesterday
'Cause yesterday made me who I am today
Oh yeah

I just wanna testify (I just wanna testify)
I just wanna testify (I just wanna testify)
I just gotta testify

Amazing grace saved my life (Saved my life)
I just wanna testify (Again and again and again)
Oh, amazing grace saved my life
Saved my life, saved my life
I just gotta testify
