Verse 1:
      A9                Bm/E
I was walking all alone searching,
      E            E7            A9
For a place that I    could call home.
        A9                                 Bm/E
In that moment I felt your grace, my heart melted,

All my fears     disappeared.

Lord, You embraced me when I called to You,

When my life       was so empty.

In my darkness You came to me,

To love me       as I am.

and showed that I can be       who I am.

All the love You have to share 
           Bm/E
Is shining through me.

When my life      was so empty.
