Chris August - Gotta Be A Change lyrics

I'm not the way I was meant to be
I carry chains though I've been set free
I'm a broken man healing
A sinner now believing
That I'm not the way I was meant to be

There's gotta be a difference
There's gotta be a change
You love me as I am
But You called me from the grave
Now that I've met Your mercy
I can't just stay the same
There's gotta be a difference
There's gotta be a change

I need holiness to consume my life
Want a softer heart, wanna lose my pride
Let every single action be
Filled with Your compassion
Oh, holiness, consume my life

There's gotta be a difference
There's gotta be a change
You love me as I am
But You called me from the grave
Now that I've met Your mercy
I can't just stay the same
There's gotta be a difference
There's gotta be a change
There's gotta be a difference
There's gotta be a change

Redemption's calling, calling out my name
Was born into my sin
But that's not where I have to stay
I don't need excuses, oh
But what I need is grace
To be only Yours today

There's got to be a change
There's got to be a change

There's gotta be a difference
There's gotta be a change
You love me as I am
But You called me from the grave
Now that I've met Your mercy
I can't just stay the same
There's gotta be a difference
There's gotta be a change

There's gotta be a change
Gotta be a difference in me
There's gotta be, oh
There's gotta be a change
Oh, there's gotta be a change
