Cody Young - Testimony Lyrics

Yeah
It was December back in 2018
Holy Spirit, you flow through me, you're my friend
It was December back in 2018
I was working on the album steady chasing my dreams
I was finishing on a song, felt like I bottled lighting
Wasn't long, before the enemy was testing his schemes
He came to me as I was writing the lyrics, man I could hear it
The voice of the serpent was in my ear, I didn't fear it
Till' he told me that I blasphemed the spirit, and more specific
That I'd never be forgiven, for this sin was so horrific
Homie, after this happened I felt the darkness try to creep in
Doubting every moment, I was having trouble sleeping
Wondering if this could really happen to a christian
And the thought of separation really pushed me off the deep end
Ugh, for five months I was battling through depression
Suicidal thoughts started coming in my direction
The devil told me there was no hope for my situation
But I cried out to the Lord and by His grace he helped me make it

Through the valley of the shadow, I know that you walking with me
Even though the weapon formed, I know that will never hit me
I got Jesus
Homie, I got Jesus
Yeah
When I'm going through the fire, when I'm runnin' through the city
I am not afraid, 'cause I know you live within me
I got Jesus
Homie, I got Jesus

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I will fear no evil
For You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me

Yeah, Aye
Now my hope is in Jesus Christ
He's the one who saved me from all deception and lies
Of the enemy who told me to go commit suicide
When I thought that I was hopeless and I couldn't see the light
But knew I couldn't give up, I knew that I had to fight
It's only by His grace and His love that I'm still alive
His mercy has redeemed me from every night that I cried
Brought me joy into this life, now I've got a beautiful bride
And a daughter that I love, she's a gift from up above
And He called me His beloved
Then He washed me with His blood
I'm redeemed, now I'm clean
I'm holy, righteous and free
Put me on my feet and gave me new eyes to see
Told me He will never leave me or forsake me
No matter what the devil does he can never break me
He can never take me, nothing that they do can separate me
I am with the Lord forever and now I'm saying

Through the valley of the shadow, I know that you walking with me
Even though the weapon formed, I know that will never hit me
I got Jesus
Homie, I got Jesus
Yeah
When I'm going through the fire, when I'm runnin' through the city
I am not afraid, 'cause I know you live within me
I got Jesus
Homie, I got Jesus

You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies
You anoint my head with oil; My cup runs over
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me All the days of my life
And I will dwell in the house of the Lord Forever
