Ernie Haase & Signature Sound — While I Was a Sinner lyrics

Lyrics

Verse One
My life was once marked by sorrow and shame / and I was defined by my past /
Heartache was something I could not escape / there was no joy that would last /
But Jesus found me and everything changed / I will never again be the same
Chorus
While I was a prisoner / He broke every chain / While I was a beggar / He
called me by name / While I was guilty / He faced Calvary / And while I was a
sinner / Jesus died for me
Verse Two
Long before I ever knew I was lost / a Savior had taken my place / Offering
hope in exchange for a cross / meeting my need with His grace / When I look
back at the person I was / I’m amazed by the depths of His love
Repeat Chorus
Tag
While I was guilty /
He faced Calvary / And while I was sinner, I was a sinner / Jesus died for me /
He died for me
Encore
While, while, while / I was a prisoner / He broke every chain / While I was a
beggar / He called me by name / While I was guilty / He faced Calvary / And
while I was a sinner, I was a sinner / Jesus died for me / He died for me
