Sitting at home washing my feet
Watching all the people go by my street
They're letting me know they're walking on by
'Cause I had a little spec in my eye
I wonder why they act surprised
About a little thing in my life when they're so blind
They knew me back when, and they all let me down
They never picked me up when I was on the ground
But thanks be to God He sent me some friends
Who knew what I could be and didn't care where I'd been
The future is a lonely place
If you're going with people who don't know heaven's grace
TAKE A LOOK, TAKE A LOOK AT ME NOW
DON'T YOU LOOK, DON'T YOU LOOK AT ME THEN
IT'S ALL ABOUT, ALL ABOUT WHERE I'M GOING
NOT ABOUT, NOT ABOUT WHERE I'VE BEEN
ALL OF MY CRIMES HAVE BEEN PAID
ALL OF MY PRAYERS HAVE BEEN PRAYED
I ONCE WAS LOST, BUT NOW I'M FOUND
SO TAKE A LOOK AT ME NOW
Looking at you looking at me
Is sorta like staring back at history
'Cause in your eyes I'm frozen in time
I never took another step in your mind
I wonder if you'll ever choose
To break away the cold and ice, and find the truth
If you're hearing me now you might stop and think
That I have got some bitterness in my drink
But I've got a taste of something brand new
And all I want for you is to taste it too
It's a wonderful thing to know
That a life's not lived in one short episode
TAKE A LOOK, TAKE A LOOK AT ME NOW
DON'T YOU LOOK, DON'T YOU LOOK AT ME THEN
IT'S ALL ABOUT, ALL ABOUT WHERE I'M GOING
NOT ABOUT, NOT ABOUT WHERE I'VE BEEN
ALL OF MY CRIMES HAVE BEEN PAID
ALL OF MY PRAYERS HAVE BEEN PRAYED
I ONCE WAS LOST, BUT NOW I'M FOUND
SO TAKE A LOOK AT ME NOW
Who am I
That my God would pay the price
To see that my
Life after death is divine
Take a look, Take a look at me now
Even though I had let Him down
I once was lost, but now I'm found
So take a look at me now
TAKE A LOOK, TAKE A LOOK AT ME NOW
DON'T YOU LOOK, DON'T YOU LOOK AT ME THEN
IT'S ALL ABOUT, ALL ABOUT WHERE I'M GOING
NOT ABOUT, NOT ABOUT WHERE I'VE BEEN
ALL OF MY CRIMES HAVE BEEN PAID
ALL OF MY PRAYERS HAVE BEEN PRAYED
I ONCE WAS LOST, BUT NOW I'M FOUND
SO TAKE A LOOK AT ME NOW
