Never Look Back

I once woke up and found myself in

A dark and abandoned prison

When I look back I know it was my pride

That consumed my soul and locked me inside

Although I could have walked out anytime

I sat in my cell and said I was fine

I even looked at those on the outside

And was convinced they were the ones with pride

Then one day I heard a knock at the door

And got myself up from the prison floor

I saw through a lens that was much cleaner

The beautiful sight of my redeemer

With the mercy that I know will last

You didn't condemn me for my past

And as your scarred hand pointed the way

I knew it was a glorious day

Even while under enemy attack

I loudly proclaim I'll never look back

Then one day I heard a knock at the door

And got myself up from the prison floor

I saw through a lens that was much cleaner

The beautiful sight of my redeemer

With the mercy that I know will last

You didn't condemn me for my past

And as your scarred hand pointed the way

I knew it was a glorious day

I once woke up and found myself in

A dark and abandoned prison

Then one day I heard a knock at the door

And got myself up from the prison floor

I saw through a lens that was much cleaner

The beautiful sight of my redeemer

With the mercy that I know will last

You didn't condemn me for my past

And as your scarred hand pointed the way

I knew it was a glorious day
