Spellbound
The original music was something that was originally meant to be on the "Preaching of the Cross" CD, but went unused. The third verse was actually written first in the form of notes, with the idea of using it for something else. I notices the acronyms in the verse, and began spelling out words, and putting together verses until the song was done.
TopSpin decided to re-create the beat to make it more dynamic. The stacatto kick in the last line of the hook he put in without ever hearing the hook or the lyrics to the song. Just kind of makes me think how God can take elements of ourselves or our lives that have been thrown out or unused, and put it together to make something remarkable.
Salvation's so easy like the ABC's, 'cause Christ is so avail A B L E,
Said "yes", now I'm blessed like I just sneezed, now I'm walking in truth no L I E.
I was, so full of P R D E, and "I" was in the center it was all about me,
Fasted from holiness and so M T, 'til Jesus made me, part of His family.
Hook: I will L O V E love Him all the T I M E time, I am H I S HIS and He is M I N E mine,
And I will L I V E live for the day I D I E die, when I will L I V E E T E R N A L L Y!
I'm a changed man, N E W, I was shaken by His truth, like it made a double move,
Now I'm drunk off the Spirit, I don't use the double deuce,
People grab a second look they have to take a double view.
My loose lifestyle left me so angry, I was fit to be tied, K N O T.
I was chained like mail send to twelve homies, 'til Christ set me F R double E!
(Hook)
I'm an F A N A T I C, and I'm a new creature gotta check my I D,
Hooked up to living water you can call it I V, with a P U R P O S E.
The flesh, I wear it under like some BVD's, I'm changing the landscape like WMD's,
I'm watching my behavior like DVD's, anticipate His return like a CD release.
I had no hope I was in S I N, didn't know it separated God from M E N,
Until then, I never heard that blood could cleanse, but that's one stain Tide can't upend.
I'm a crooked letter humped back E double straight lined B O U N D indeed,
Fascinated by His G R A C E, saved a wretch like M E me!
(Speaking) Yeah man, I'm spellbound by the grace of God. Fascinated by the depth of His love. Man that's all I got. LET's G O!
(Hook)
