Verse 1
You have pardoned my transgressions
You have sanctified my soul
You have honored my confession
By Your blood Lord, I've been made whole
Lord You prosper and protect me
And Your blessings ever flow.
You have filled me with Your glory
You've made me white as snow
Chorus
I am saved by Your mercy
I've been transformed by Your love
You're my glory and the lifter of my head
Strong deliverer, You'll fight my battles in my stead

Hallelujah, I am saved
Through Your blood Lord I am forgiven and by Your grace I've been set free
I am saved by Your mercy
I've been transformed by Your love
You're my glory and the lifter of my head
Strong deliverer, You'll fight my battles in my stead
You will preserve me-e by Your mercy-ee (last time only)

Meaning & Inspiration
Saved is a testimony of thanks for pardon through the blood of Christ. The verses say the Lord has pardoned transgressions, sanctified the soul, honored a confession, made the singer whole by His blood, protects, prospers, fills with His glory and makes the singer white as snow. The chorus declares being saved by His mercy and transformed by His love, naming Him the glory and lifter of the head and a strong deliverer who fights battles.
A lead line adds that through His blood there is forgiveness and by grace freedom. The ideas follow Titus 3:5, Ephesians 1:7, Isaiah 1:18 on being white as snow, and Psalm 3:3 on the lifter of the head. The closing vamp repeats Hallelujah, making the song a choir-led song of praise for salvation.
