Whitecross - To My Surprise lyrics

There was time when I was looking for something real hard I'm not quite sure what it was, but I think… I think it was peace with God What I longed for were bluer skies Somethin' to fill the emptiness deep inside Just when my life seemed to unravel again I knew I was fallin' I needed a friend I wasn't lookin' for a love so real I never thought I could reach the sky Then when I least expected a reason why To my surprise I better stay focused on what's gonna last The Lamb of God erased the sins of my past If I just lock into Jesus each day He promised to help me and carry the weight And now that I know he paid for my sin I'm washed in his blood, this new life begins I wasn't lookin' for a love so real I never thought I could reach the sky Then when I least expected a reason why To my surprise No, I never expected to know the most high To lose the weight of my sins so I could fly so high I wasn't lookin' for a love so real I never thought I could reach the sky Then when I least expected a reason why To my surprise I wasn't lookin' for a love so real I never thought I could reach the sky Then when I least expected a reason why To my surprise You opened my eyes Oh what a surprise You opened, you opened, you opened my eyes To my surprise
