Love Stepped In - Finding Favour

He was preachin' down off 3rd and main as I was passin' by

He was walking talking kinda crazy warnin' us all 'bout the end of time

So out from the crowd, I just asked him how could God love a mess like me

He said, «Son, I’m a preacher now but that ain’t who I used to be»

He said

You’ll never know, you’ll never know

Just how far love has brought me

You’ll never know who I used to be

Cause I’ve been around and I’ve been down

To the bottom of hell and back again

I was almost out, I was at my end

But then love stepped in

She works downtown at the halfway house almost every day

All the love she has she just gives away

So I asked her why she spends so much time on the broken and the poor

And she just smiled at me and said «I'm not who I was before»

She said

You’ll never know, you’ll never know

Just how far love has brought me

You’ll never know who I used to be

Cause I’ve been around and I’ve been down

To the bottom of hell and back again

I was almost out, I was at my end

But then love stepped in

Love stepped in

I look back sometimes over where I’ve been and just how far I’ve come

Since the day that preacher told me about His amazing love

I was lost and alone, then the lights came on and hope set my heart free

In the darkest hour grace got a hold of me, yeah

You’ll never know, you’ll never know

Just how far love has brought me

You’ll never know who I used to be, oh oh

Cause I’ve been around and I’ve been down

To the bottom of hell and back again

I was almost out, I was at my end

But then love stepped in

Love stepped in
