I TRIED TO SAVE THE WORLD TODAY
By showing them Your face
With this kiss I won’t give You away
You pick me up each time I fall
And turn my life around
Give me strength to move to higher
ground
Look what You’ve done for me
Look what my life can be
Look what You’ve done Lord
Your love has saved the day
Why You came for one like me
I’ll never understand
I have Your invitation in my hand
To dance through all eternity
With everyone who calls
Upon the name who is above them all
