I Lived to Tell About It

I lived to tell about it, I lived to testify.
 I lived to tell about it, let God be glorified
 Satan's plans to destroy me, backfired like dynamite,
 Gave me a testimony, I shall live and not die.
 For the moment things looked hopeless, thought I would not survive
 I lived to tell about it, I lived to testify.
 In a deep dark cave of trouble, my soul was in distress.
 Evil whispered in my ear, you've left for dead.
 In the trial of my life, all I could do was cry.
 And suddenly God breathed in me a second wind to try
 Satan, You did not do your homework when you picked me to harass.
 You see I wasn't born again just
 yesterday, I've been tested in the past.
 I know just how you work, how all you do is lie.
 I will not be defeated, I know the Way, the Truth, the Life
