Funeral

Dearly beloved
We're gathered here today to pay our last respects
To the guilt and regret that had me buried in my shame
See, I was so hopeless
I stopped making plans
Convinced my best was behind me
The past would define me
Don't deserve a second chance

Then I met You
And everything changed
I met You
And I'll never be the same

So, I'm throwing a funeral, funeral for the old me
I'm throwing a funeral, funeral for who I used to be
The new has come, the old is gone
Praise the Lord, I'm moving on
I'm throwing a funeral, funeral for the old me

All that was broken has now been redeemed
I was the captive, the sinner, the beggar, the prisoner
But now I'm set free

Because of You
My soul has been saved
Because of You
That old life's in the grave

And, I'm throwing a funeral, funeral for the old me
I'm throwing a funeral, funeral for who I used to be
The new has come, the old is gone
Praise the Lord, I'm moving on
I'm throwing a funeral, funeral for the old me

I'm saying goodbye to who I've been
I'm saying goodbye to who I've been
I'm saying goodbye, never going back again
I'm saying goodbye

Now, I don't know when it's coming
But when my time runs out
I'll be happy to leave, yeah 'cause it won't be me
They're laying in the ground

I'll be with you
Standing in the sun
I'll be with you
So, until that day comes

I'm throwing a funeral, funeral for the old me
I'm throwing a funeral, funeral for who I used to be
The new has come the old is gone
Praise the Lord I'm moving on
I'm throwing a funeral, funeral for the old me

I'm throwing a funeral, funeral for the old me
I'm throwing a funeral, funeral for the old me
