I Can't Turn Back

(album: This Is Who I Am - 2006)

[Verse 1]
I've had disappointments
I've had some strife
I've had great suffering
And so much pain in my life

I've had some situations
I really should've lost my mind
But I know god's a keeper
And that he's always right on time
B verse
So when I think of his goodness
And what he's done for me
I can't turn back

[Verse 2]
I remember being homeless
Being mistreated and abused
I remember being talked about
Cuz there were holes in my shoes

Somebody told me that you loved me
You had a better life for me yeah!
I'm so glad that they told me
I'm so glad that I'm free

So when I think about your goodness
And what you've done for me
I can't turn back

[Chorus]
I'm committed to you lord
So I won't go back
I won't go, I won't go
I won't go

[Verse 3]
I don't serve him for money
I don't serve him for things
I do serve him cause I'm thankful
For all the joy that he brings

When I was in trouble
He came and rescued me-yeah!
Lord without you I'm nothing
Lord I owe you everything

So when I think about your goodness
And all you've done for me
I can't turn back

[Chorus 2]
I'm committed to you lord
So I won't turn back
I won't go, I won't go
I won't go, I won't go

[repeat and modulate 3x]

I can't turn back [repeat]

[Bridge]
Thru all of my sorrow
Thru all of my strain
For every one of my struggles
And every one of my pains
Many days when I was crying
Many days I wore shame
But I thank you for sunshine and I thank you for the rain
That's why...

[Verse 4]
I don't serve him for money
I don't serve him for things
But I serve him cause he's faithful
And he's been so good to me

B verse
I get joy when I think about
What he's done for me-yeah!
I'm so glad that he saved me
Im so glad that I'm free

[Chorus 2]
