You wouldn’t think a child of seven
Could have done much that she regrets
But in her heart, she knows she needs You
She’s learned about Your life and death
She and her daddy kneel together
She prays You’ll forgive her sins
And now the story gets familiar
This is the part where You come in
And everything’s new, everything’s changed
For each heart, it’s different but somehow the same
For the rest of her life, the story she’ll tell again and again
Is the part where You come in
For some, it’s at an old-time altar
Or in a hospital room one night
For some, the first time that we hear You
Or one last chance before we die
And you’re always waiting with forgiveness
No matter what we’ve done or been
You hear us crying for Your mercy
And that’s the part where You come in
And everything’s new, everything’s changed
For each heart, it’s different but somehow the same
For the rest of our lives, the story we’ll tell again and again
Is the part where You come in
Lord, You remember every time and place a soul’s been saved
Yet I imagine You love it when we testify again
That everything’s new, everything’s changed
For each heart, it’s different but somehow the same
For the rest of our lives, the story we’ll tell again and again
Is the part where You come in
And everything’s new, everything’s changed
Since Jesus forgave me, now I’m not the same
For the rest of our lives, the story we’ll tell again and again
Is the part where You come in
