Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Never knew my life could be this way
I  never knew the sun could shine all day
Never thought I'd live beyond my past
Until I found Jesus, I never thought I'd be in this place
Oh, I'm glad, so glad, I'm living my life in this place
[Verse 2]
Ooh, I never knew my heart could feel again
(You see, I was so hurt, so hurt)
Never knew the pain would let me stand
(Never thought the tears would go away, no)
Never thought my tears could go away
(Until I found You, Jesus) Till I found Jesus
I never thought I'd be in this place
Oh, I'm so glad I'm living my life in this place
[Verse 3]
There's a place in God where we can all be free
A place where God can get the best out of me
There's a secret place in God where He covers me, oh
Oh, I'm glad I'm living my life in this place
Oh, I'm glad I'm living my life in this place
[Verse 4]
Oh, been a lot places, seen a lot of faces
But I'd never been in this place
Time and time again, I never thought I'd win
(Oh, Lord, and) But I'd never been in this place
(Been a lot places, seen a lot of people, oh, Lord)
Been a lot of places, seen a lot of faces
But I'd never been in this place
Time and time again, never thought I'd win
But I'd never been in this place
[Verse 5]
(I've been around the world, seen a lot of people)
Been a lot of places, seen a lot of faces
(But I never thought I'd be here)
But I'd never been in this place
(I am amazed that I'm in this place, I never thought I would be here)
Time and time again, never thought I'd win
But I'd never been in this place
(In the arms of Jesus, it's a good place to be here, y'all, yes, it is, oh)
[Verse 6]
Been a lot of places, seen a lot of faces
But I'd never been in this place
Time and time again, I never thought I'd win
But I'd never been in this place, this place
(I'm happy to be in this place)
(To God, to glory, for all He has done, I'm so glad to be in this place)
This place, this place
(My joy is right here, yes, it is, my peace is right here)
This place, this place
(Oh, I'm living the best of my life in this place, yes, I am)
This place, this place
(It's a good place to be in, y'all)
(Oh, I am so glad, I'm living a best life, y'all, in this place)
Oh, I'm glad I'm living my life in this place
(Yes, I want the world to know)
Yes, I'm glad I'm living my life in this place
