Verse 1

I didn’t grow up in a church
I didn’t know how a hymnal worked
But I met a girl
Who talked about a place
Where a man like me
Could find a little grace
I was staring at a screen
Singing melodies
To a song I didn’t know
When I started to believe

Chorus

I met you in a church pew singing
Great are You Lord
Ten thousand reasons
And Oh How He Loves
That’s where a God
Like You met a man like me
I found You in a old used Bible
And the words came alive
I knew you were the way
The truth and the life
I still remember singing
I am Redeemed
That’s how a God like You

Turnaround

Saved a man like me
Saved a man like me

Verse 2

But the story isn’t over yet
I married that girl
And she’s my best friend
Now I’m parking at the church
With our son in the car
It’s a miracle that
He took us this far
And I’m standing in a room singing melodies
That sound a little like the ones
That set me free

Chorus

I met you in a church pew singing
Great are You Lord
Ten thousand reasons
And Oh How He Loves
That’s where a God
Like You met a man like me
I found You in a old used Bible
And the words came alive
I knew you were the way
The truth and the life
I still remember singing
I am Redeemed
That’s how a God like You

Turnaround

Saved a man like me
Saved a man like me

Bridge

Don’t know what you saw
In the man I was
Didn’t really think that you’d show up
But You did oh
You did
Don’t know why you stretched out holy hands
To an enemy you called a friend
But you did
Hallelujah you did

Chorus

I met you in a church pew singing
Great are You Lord
Ten thousand reasons
And Oh How He Loves
That’s where a God
Like You met a man like me
Oh I found You
In a old used Bible
And the words came alive
I knew you were the way
The truth and the life
I still remember singing
I am Redeemed
That’s how a God like You

Turnaround

Saved a man like me
Saved a man like me
You saved a man like me
