I'M BORN AGAIN
Author(s): Jonathan French, Apollos

KeyWords: Pioneering,

When I was young the grown-ups told me
What kind of man I should grow up to be.
Wealth and riches they said were life's goal
And poured my young life into their mold.

As time went on I grew restless inside.
The game I played left me dissatisfied.
I tried to break loose, I tried to live free.
I finally cried, "Lord, won't You please rescue me."

Chorus:
And then suddenly I heard a knockin' at my door.
I opened up, now I know what life's for.
The King of Love came in and broke every chain.
He gave me peace and joy. I'm born again.

Now my life is turned around
To this World I am no longer bound.
I'm happy now, in my heart's a new song.
At last I found out where I belong.

Chorus:
Because one day I heard a knockin' at my door.
I opened up, now I know what life's for.
The King of Love came in and broke every chain.
He gave me peace and joy. I'm born again.

All my old friends say I'm not the same.
I smile and agree my whole life has changed.
Far behind are the sorrows of my past
With this love in my heart I'm free at last.

Chorus:
Because one day I heard a knockin' at my door.
I opened up, now I know what life's for.
The King of Love came in and broke every chain.
He gave me peace and joy. I'm born again.

Chorus:
The King of Love came in and broke every chain.
He gave me peace and joy. I'm born again.
