You Rescued Me

Written by Matt Salada

[Verse 1]
From an unending ocean of waves
Of one making wreckage of me
So much wreckage of me
I was helpless and lost to the sea
The grave she beckoned me
Like a siren she beckoned me
These raging waters would drown me
But You stole my soul from the deep
You rescued me

[Chorus]
You rescued me
Hey, hey, yeah You
You rescued me
Oh, vast was the distance between us
The ransom was steep
But You rescued me

[Verse 2]
From the pain of a fruitless search
That's gone on endlessly
And all but devoured me
Just to satisfy this thirst
It preyed on my vanity
Enslaved my humanity, yeah
And I'd given up on escaping
When You bought my release
You rescued me

[Chorus]
You rescued me
Oh, yeah You
You rescued me
Yeah, if anyone freed was deserving
I was the least
But You rescued me

[Bridge]
Outside the fences I fell to my knees
Starving and frail from years in that jail
The gate shut behind me, my freedom was true
Because You

[Chorus]
You rescued me
Yeah, You
You rescued me (oh)
You rescued me (oh)
You rescued me (oh)
You rescued me
Yeah, You rescued me
