Love Stepped In
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
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

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
