Then You Came Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Deeper I sink into this pit I've dug for myself
Further I fall
I'm no longer the king of my own hill
I've made my bed
Now I lie on these sores alone and empty
I've built my house on this foundation of sand

[Pre-Chorus]
Without You here I can't go on
Without You here I'll fall

[Chorus]
Then You came
You took me broken, healed my wounds
Then You came
You took this failure, gave me purpose

[Verse 2]
Weak and undone
I feel my life falling apart
By flaw or design, nothing is as I planned
Despite my intent, all my goals slip from my grasp
The plans I'vе made all amount to nothing

[Pre-Chorus]
Without You here I'll fall
[Chorus]
Thеn You came
You took me broken, healed my wounds
Then You came
You took this failure, gave me purpose

[Bridge]
You saved me from this place when I'd given up
If I can see Your face, then You'll lift me up

[Chorus]
Then You came
You took me broken, healed my wounds
Then You came
You took this failure, gave me purpose

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
