[Verse 1:]  I remember the day when I  Took Him in my heart and all my old ways denied  Hey and my old friends sayin I  Wasn't the same made a change in my life  Oh felt like a bum in the slum  No control on my tongue and I cursed and I lied  I played the game for the fame  I was lame for the dames and the devil was my ally  I was in jail made bail and the demons in my head  Made me do something stupid  I was in love wit my girl, but we didn't get along, so I blamed it on the Cupid  Let unemployment hunt me  Didn't nobody want me answer my major  When I tried everything, everything didn't work  Then I finally tried the savior    [Chorus:]  Hay I done tried it all  Runnin in the streets, I done tried it all  Goin to the club, I done tried it all  Tryin to play the thug, I done tried it all  Oh, after I tried the rest I was trippin cause I should've tried the best  Runnin with a no, I should've tried a yes  Open up my heart and then my mouth confessed, yes    [Verse 2:]  I thought I'd recover quickly, but without  God my life was still a little tricky  Hay and I wasn't really picky living for lust  Thank God the girly wasn't sickly  Oh I turned around, I was sound cause the Lord that I found  Man, His love just hit me, I can't deny I was high  This is good, you should try  But it's not the sticky-icky  Now I'm a happy camper  Finally changed my pamper, ready for the throw down  Yeah, I'm a bold soldier nothing to hide like a brother on the low down  I tell them all worldwide, inside, outside, Internet, on the cable  When I tried everything, everything didn't work  But the Holy One is able    [Chorus:]  Hay I done tried it all  Runnin in the streets, I done tried it all  Tryin to play the thug, I done tried it all  Goin to the club, I done tried it all  Oh, after I tried the rest I was trippin cause I should've tried the best  Runnin with a no, I should've tried a yes  Open up my heart and then my mouth confessed, yes    [Bridge:]  Yes, I never know how good Your love could be  But now I see my life is so much better then I ever dreamed  You rescued me    [Chorus:]  Hay I done tried it all  Runnin in the streets, I done tried it all  Goin to the club, I done tried it all  Tryin to play the thug, I done tried it all  Oh, after I tried the rest I was trippin cause I should've tried the best  Runnin with a no, I should've tried a yes  Open up my heart and then my mouth confessed, yes
