Al Denson - Tabula Rasa (Clean Slate) lyrics

Just a man at the end of my rope All alone in a life without hope Had it all, lost it all Because of pride and inattention Saw a flash in the pitch black of night Saw a face bathed in glorious light Heard a voice, take my hand And I will lead you to redemption Then my heart was cleansed and my soul redeemed And my faith restored again When we walk in the spirit that Jesus lived Then the gift of forgiveness is ours to give For that one second chance to begin again There's a wise and sacred phrase (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) Tabula rasa (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) Shattered heart, precious pieces of gla** Just a child forced to grow up too fast All alone with her innocence betrayed And dreams forsaken Now her soul cries out for the grace of love And she hears a voice within When we walk in the spirit that Jesus lived Then the gift of forgiveness is ours to give For that one second chance to begin again There's a wise and sacred phrase As the chains are removed from our fear and doubt Let us now greet the brand new day (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) Tabula rasa (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) Tabula rasa (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) Oh-oh-oh-oh (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) Behind every face and inside every heart The scars of the past weigh you down Your destiny's chosen before you start You're free, it don't matter now Oh, oh, the slate is clean Oh, oh, the road is marked Oh, oh, we turn the page Oh, oh, we give our hearts When we walk in the spirit that Jesus lived Then the gift of forgiveness is ours to give For that one second chance to begin again There's a wise and sacred phrase As the chains are removed from our fear and doubt Let us now greet the brand new day (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) Tabula rasa (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) Tabula rasa (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) Oh-oh-oh-oh (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) The slate is clean, the road is marked (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) We turn the page (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) Oh, tabula rasa (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) Oh-oh-oh-oh (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) We give our hearts, We give our life We turn the page, the road is marked Oh-oh, tabula rasa (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) Oh-oh-oh-oh (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
