I thought God was only Jewish fairy tales   Meant for someone else with lots more faith   all my doubts oppressed me—but that's the way it stayed   Till a voice said, "Honey, call My name"   Then I got His grace--now I'm a receiver   God replaced--the doubt in my mind--I've been loved (ooh, aah)   I'm a receiver--got the Redeemer in my life   I thought God was more impressed with givin' things   He said, "Boy, I gave the best I got   "What's the use in strivin'? All your dept is paid   Didn't leave a punch-line on My grave"   Then I got His grace - now I'm a receiver   Got a place--a palace on high--up above   I'm a receiver--I'm gonna be there if I die      What’s the use in strivin’? all your debt is paid   Check out Romans 10:9--I got saved   When I got his grace--now I'm a receiver   Mama says--I'm out of my mind--I've been touched (ooh, aah)   I'm a receiver--I got Ephesians 2:8,9   Then I got His grace--now I'm a receiver   Not afraid---about when I die   Now I'm a receiver, of the Redemer, better believer, yeah, yeah yeah!   Now I’m a receiver-- 'cuz I got his grace.   Now I’m a receiver-- not afreaid to shout it on high.
