Lyrics
Just an old rejected relic
On the auction block
They decided to throw me away
The auctioneer asked, "Who will take her?"
The room was quiet and still
'Til a stranger stepped forward
And He said, "I will"
If you had known me before I knew Him
You'd understand why I love Him
If you had known me before I knew Him
You'd understand my love
I had not much to offer
Just heartaches and fear
And a life that was filled with despair
For my rags, He gave me riches
For my fear, He traded peace
From my old life, he gave me
A blessed release
If you had known me before I knew Him
You'd understand why I love Him
If you had known me before I knew Him
You'd understand my love
If you had known me before I knew Him
You'd understand my love
