Prompt / Lyrics
Verse 1 (Childhood and teenage turn) I was just a boy when the stories filled my soul Jesus loves the little children, make the broken whole Sunday school and mama’s prayers, seeds in tender ground But the world came calling loud, and I turned around Teenage nights under streetlights, chasing shadows far from home Friends with easy promises, said I’d never be alone Left the light behind me, stepped into the dark unknown And I turned around Chorus Oh, I was lost on a one-way road Chasing highs that left me low But Your voice was whispering through the storm Gentle love that kept me warm You never let go, though I ran so far Calling my name like a guiding star In the wreckage, in the pain, You found me on the ground And You turned me around You turned me around Verse 2 (Downfall, hitchhiking, and the poem) I chose the wild and restless life, thumb out on the interstate Hitchhiked coast to coast and back, chasing freedom that wouldn’t wait Multiple times across this land, from the desert to the rain Sleeping under overpasses, running from the shame Pills and weed, empty bottles, years blurred into haze Broken hearts and empty hands from every choice I made Wrote a poem called “Resolution-Revolution,” thought my words would light the way Change the world with my own fire—only Christ could save the day Chorus Oh, I was lost on a one-way road Chasing highs that left me low But Your voice was whispering through the storm Gentle love that kept me warm You never let go, though I ran so far Calling my name like a guiding star In the wreckage, in the pain, You found me on the ground And You turned me around You turned me around Bridge (Turning point) One desperate morning, broken on my knees That old poem in my pocket, fading like my dreams “Jesus, if You’re real, come and rescue me” Only You can change the world—only You can change me Verse 3 (Restoration and calling) Now the chains are broken, feet on solid ground Preaching on the corners where I once was bound Telling how the Savior chased me down those endless roads How grace reached through my rebellion and turned my life around Final Chorus (Triumphant) Oh, I was lost but now I’m found Was blind but now I see the crown Your voice that whispered through the storm Brought this prodigal safely home You never let go, though I strayed so far Now I lift Your name, my guiding star From the highways to the pulpit, standing on this holy ground Lord, You turned me around You turned me around Forever turned around
