“Alive Through the Wound”
Verse 1
I was born in the fracture
A heartbeat in chains
Every breath tasted bitter
Every step marked in shame
I was drowning in silence
With blood on my hands
But You called through the chaos
And I don’t understand
Pre-Chorus
Why love would reach this far
Into my ruin
Chorus
You said I’m alive through the wound
Alive in the breaking
Grace like a flood breaking through
Every part of me shaking
I was dead in the dark
But You tore it apart
Now I breathe in the truth—
I’m alive… because of You
Verse 2
I was bound to the graveyard
Every lie that I chose
Sin was more than a shadow
It was under my skin, in my bones
But You stepped into my death
Took the weight, took the fall
Now the cross is the doorway
And I’m not who I was
Pre-Chorus
You rewrote my scars
Into a new name
Chorus
You said I’m alive through the wound
Alive in the breaking
Grace like a flood breaking through
Every part of me shaking
I was dead in the dark
But You tore it apart
Now I breathe in the truth—
I’m alive… because of You
Bridge
Buried with You, I let it die
All of the sickness I used to hide
Raised with You, I’m purified
I won’t go back, I won’t go back
Sin has no claim on me now
I hear the chains hit the ground
I’m not a slave to the sound
Of the voice that drags me down
Breakdown (whisper → scream)
Dead to sin…
Alive again…
DEATH LOST ITS HOLD WHEN YOU CALLED MY NAME
Final Chorus
I’m alive through the wound
Alive in the breaking
Your love is the proof
Every heartbeat is changing
I was lost in the night
Now I’m burning with light
I am free in the truth—
I’m alive… because of You
Outro
Grace wrote my ending
Life from the grave
I was condemned—
But now I’m saved
