Chorus:
It's not an old, old story
About a long, long time ago
It's not an old, old story
About "Once upon a time"
This is new!
This is fresh!
This is pertinent, you see
'Cos it's a story about Jesus
And what He's done for me
I was living my life,
Doing things my own way
Feeling in control
And confident every day
When suddenly
My world came crashing down
My friends had left me
There was no help to be found
(Chorus)
I was sinking in sin
I was drowning in sorrow
No hope for today
No hope for tomorrow
I was losing control
And feeling rather grim
Then someone told me about Jesus
And what He'd done for him
(Chorus)
In darkness alone,
I fell to my knees
With tears in my eyes
I begged, "Lord help me please!"
Then a small, small voice
I'd never heard before
Said, "My Child,
I'm standing at your door."
(Chorus)
So I opened my heart
And let the Saviour in
And that's the day
My new story did begin
Now I'm walking in the light
With angels by my side
I've got hope for tomorrow
I've got joy in my stride
(Chorus)
No matter how the story goes
Or how it may twist and bend
It will have a happy ending
'Cos Jesus is my friend!
It is new!
It is fresh!
And it could happen to you
Jesus is standing at your door
To write your story too.
