It could have been me put the thorns in your crown
Rooted as I am in a violent ground
How many times have I turned your promise down

Still you pour out your love
Pour out your love
I was a dweller by a dark stream

A crying heart hooked on a dark dream
In my convict soul I saw your love gleam
And you showed me what you've done

Jesus, thank-you joyous Son
You entered a life like ours to give us back our own
You wanted us like you, as choosers not clones

You offered up your flesh and death was overthrown
Now salvation is ours,
Salvation is ours

I was a dweller by a dark stream
A crying heart hooked on a dark dream
In my convict soul I saw your love gleam

And you showed me what you've done
Jesus, thank-you joyous Son
So I'm walking this prison camp world

I long for a glimpse of the new world unfurled
The chrysalis cracking and moisten winds uncurl
Like in the vision John saw

The vision John saw
I was a dweller by a dark stream
A crying heart hooked on a dark dream

In my convict soul I saw your love gleam
And you showed me what you've done
Jesus, thank-you joyous Son
