Jeremy Camp - Dead Man Walking Lyrics

Freedom was something I never found 

Trying to find six feet underground 

Under the weight of all of my sin 

Fighting the fight that I couldn’t win 

Then You rescued me 

Now I can breathe 

I was a dead man walking 

Until I was a man walking with You 

I was a blind man falling 

Until I felt the life You’re calling me to 

Pulling me out of the darkness 

Pulling me out of the lies 

Putting the beat in my heart again 

I was a dead man walking 

Until You loved this dead man walking back to life 

I look for the words but cannot explain 

A new kind of love ran into my veins 

You are the key to all of my chains 

To all that I was now I’m not a slave 

Then You rescued me 

And now I can breathe 

I have tasted and I’ve seen the wonders of Your heart 

I do not deserve a thing, but that’s just who You are
