Hearts can turn away 
 And the roots of bitterness can carry the day 
 And I was done, it was over 
 I'd become 
 Just another heart without a home 
 And I was angry that God had left me alone 

 Since I had
 No hope of living 
 I began 
 And started giving 

 My life, my shame 
 I gave it all to him 
 My heart, my strife 
 Can you change this wasted life? 

 Time took time away 
 But he was reaching when I was so far away 
 Through many years 
 Through death's valley 
 He knew my tears 
 I believe he allowed me

 My life, my sin
 Oh, I gave it all to him
 My heart, my strife
 Can you change this wasted life?

 My life, my shame 
 Oh, I gave it all to him 
 My heart, my strife 
 Can you change this wasted life? 

 My love, my shame
 Oh, I gave him all my pain
 The truth inside
 Can you change this wasted life?

 My life, my shame 
 I gave it all to him 
 With tears in my eyes 
 I gave him my wasted life
