Tried To Find Lots Of Ways

Well, amid my dead life
Christ came on and made me right
He paid all my debts
Told me I was saved for all time
But I gotta keep growin'
Those sins were wiped out, zapped 'em like Nintendo
Ain't a perfect Christian but He showed me the way to go
But I gotta keep goin'

Ooh! I tried to find lots of ways
I took before I met Him, babe - poor me
Ooh! I tried to find lots of ways
But, look, there's only One that saves

Well, I trust God fully, but I'm not a bully
Tried to talk some sense to your pride
But I wouldn't be snarky
'Cause Jesus does the saving
Yeah, He waited for me when I was hunky dory
Shoppin' 'round for nasty stuff to boost me up
Findin' out the hard way
Lookin' for a sure thing

Ooh! I tried to find lots of ways
I took before I met Him, babe - poor me
Ooh! I tried to find lots of ways
But, look, there's only One that saves

Well, amid my dead life
God came down and made me right
He paid all my debts
(I'll) show you how He saved me sometime
But we gotta read Romans
Those sins were wiped out, zapped 'em like Nintendo
Ain't a perfect Christian but we've all got a ways to go
And we gotta keep sowin'

Ooh! I tried to find lots of ways
I took before I met Him, babe - poor me
Ooh! I tried to find lots of ways
But, look, there's only One that saves
Ooh! I tried to find lots of way-ay-ays
I took before I met Him, babe - poor me
Ooh! I tried to find lots of way-ay-ays
But, look, there's only One that saves Yeah

Ooh! I tried to find lots of ways
I took before I met Him, babe - poor me
