Pauper To A Praiser Lyrics

From a pauper to a praiser, ever since I met my savior

From a man whose blind that suddenly can see

From a taker to a giver, from a creek bed to a river

That is flowing out from deep inside of me

I was a pauper now a praiser I will be

I spent my time planning how to store up all my wealth

Somehow I convinced me it was all about myself

I didn't mind who I was grieving as long as I was just receiving

Till He showed me that I lived in poverty

But when I gave it up, I could see

(Chours)

I thought that the abundant life meant get all that I could

I guess the word “abundance” I never really understood

Till the Holy Spirit showed it, I was poor but didn't know it

But I was listening the moment He said “come”

I stepped out in faith and I went from

(chours)

To be the Lord's disciple you must give up all your rights

I know that their not easy to release without a fight

But if you really want your freedom, turn them loose cause you won't need ‘em

I know that seems hard to understand, But Jesus always has a better plan

Chours
