Next thing you know(thirteen) Lyrics

Matthew West
History
Next thing you know(thirteen)
I remember when I was thirteen
I saw a picture on my T.V. screen
The Rev. Billy Graham and the people singing "Just as I Am" And it felt like you were talking to me
And the whold world seemed to fade away
Until I heard my mother say "Son are you okay? Do you want to pray?"
And that became the hour I first believed

CHORUS
Next thing you know I'm high and flyin'
Next thing you know
My heart is in Your hands
Next thing you know
There's no denyin'
Next thing you know
I'm a brand new man

Well, I wish I could say I always stayed right there
And I did until my freshman year
But the world was pulling me a long way from thirteen
And you were calling but I didn't hear
Still I knew there was something more
[ Matthew West Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ]
So, one day my knees hit the dorm room floor
I said,"If You're there, and if you really care, come and talk to me like I was thirteen

CHORUS

BRIDGE
Got a picture in my head today
Of how heaven might look someday
I see the people there, so I pull up a chair
And their stories, they blow me away
'Cause I can see it on every face
The evidence of grace
And as i listen it occurs to me
Everybody's got their own thirteen
So what's your story
About His glory?
YOu gotta find your place
In the history of grace
Yeah, what's your story
About His glory?
Come and find you place

CHORUS
