Come on and gather round   And listen to my story   About a fall from grace   A change of heart   A rise to glory   A lesson learned   A doorway I went through      Now all I know is I was born to lead   And not to follow   But the places that I led   Turned out to be so hollow   And in the end   I just turned out to be a fool   Justification would make me shine   My performance a work of art   All I ever wanted was to walk that line   But I jumped across and broke Your heart         CHORUS:   For all I've learned   The days I lived it were so rare   The dust of innocence   I scattered who knows where   And when I turned my back on You   You stood right there   And You never left me   No You never left me         These scars I have   I know they are here to remind me   That everything I've said and done   I can leave far behind me   The door is shut   And I shall nevermore return   Everybody says that your childhood dies         A little bit more every day   But all around me are mercy's eyes   And they'll keep me close to You I pray         Repeat CHORUS         You know I came to love You as a young man   Many years ago   But now You've brought me out of harm   And I feel just like a baby in Your arms         Repeat CHORUS
