Backstory:

Until You, Lord is a co-write I had done a while back with a friend. He gave me a stack of old lyrics and asked me to go through them. I saw this one and I had been writing some Christian songs at that time, so this is what I came up with. I always like stories of redemption, so that what this is.

Lyrics:

                                                  
                                                                 Until You, Lord                             (Sanders/Millen)

V1     I walked down to the old bridge
          That evening, after work
          I’d been abandoned, for good reason
          By all the friends I’d hurt
          I took that bottle, I poured the whiskey into the river far below
          And why I did not choose eternity
          Only you and the angels know

Ch      I thought I knew things I’d done wrong
          Just could not be undone 
          I thought I knew I couldn’t be loved
          Again by anyone
          Until you, Lord
          Until you

V2     Sunday mornings at a cheap motel
          Had always been the worse
          Until that night at a 12 step hall
          You spoke when I called You first
          Now when that thirst burns my lips
          To wash my soul away
          I kneel down to praise Your name
          I close my eyes to pray

Ch

           Until you, Lord
           Until you, Lord
           Until you
