1991 Lyrics

[Intro]
(Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)

[Verse]
I was born on Christmas day in ‘72
And from that day on, I did whatever I wanted too
Runnin' from God, breakin' mama’s heart
Dyin' each day, livin' too hard
It’s a miracle that I ever made it through

By April twenty-first, nineteen-ninety-one
I was worn out tired, from all the miles that I had run
Saw an old church and walked right in
Same old truth but it felt new then
On April twenty-first, nineteen-ninety-one

[Chorus]
Amazing Grace, my eyes could see
I was born again at the age of eighteen
On a Sunday morning, Jesus got a hold of me
Hallelujah 'cause the past is gone
Hallelujah 'cause I found Your Love
Nothin' was the same, everything changed
On April twenty-first, nineteen-ninety-one

[Bridge]
(Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
[Verse 2]
Time goes by, and days turn into years
There’s been ups and downs but one things always clear
Your mercy comes with the mornin' sun
Like it did when I was young
On April twenty-first, nineteen-ninety-one

[Chorus]
Amazing Grace, my eyes could see
I was born again at the age of eighteen
On a Sunday morning, Jesus got a hold of me
Hallelujah 'cause the past is gone
Hallelujah 'cause I found Your Love
Nothin' was the same, everything changed
On April twenty-first, nineteen-ninety-one

[Bridge]
(Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
Nineteen-ninety-one
(Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)

[Chorus]
Amazing Grace, my eyes could see
I was born again at the age of eighteen
On a Sunday morning, Jesus got a hold of me, yeah
Hallelujah 'cause the past is gone
Hallelujah 'cause I found Your Love
Nothin' was the same, everything changed
On April twenty-first, nineteen-ninety-one

[Outro]
(Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
Nineteen-ninety-one
(Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
On April twenty-first, nineteen-ninety-one

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
