Turned Around
When I look at the lives of others, I often stop and think,
What at an awful way to spend your time, your life really does stink.
When I see them using, abusing, and loosing as they go along,
What an awful way to pass your time on earth, where did you go wrong?
I see the ones, who can't live without pill or drink,
I see the ones, who were born homosexuals they think,
I see the prostitutes, criminals, and crooks,
I see those I thought only existed in books.
I look at my life and say I'm glad that's not me.
In my family, such things will never be.
I think back to the days when I was young,
I remember trying things I thought would be fun
I start to think of how my God saved me.
I start to look at all these others differently.
I know my God turned my life around,
I know myself in these sinful habits could've been bound.
Today when I see those who have a hard way to go,
Today when I see someone who has dropped so low,
Today I will look up and ask God to look down.
Today I will ask God to turn their lives around.
