VERSE 1
I met my old friend
My friend from long ago
He was my boy when I was in school
We were out together so many times
So many sweet memories
One day he went abroad I never saw him again
So now he was out of my life
That's when I found the Lord and that's how I been change
CHORUS
I don’t want him to pull me back
No, I don't wanna ever go back
I never wanna go back to what I used to be
I don't want him to take me back, back to my old ways
I'm going deeper and deeper in the Lord
I love the Lord
VERSE 2
One day I stood by the road side
A flash car came by
Can you believe who was driving this car
It was my boy back in town
And he looked so nice
He said to me: let me take you home
He put his hand on my lap, my heart began to beat
I said you know it’s been a while you see, I've been changed
CHORUS
Please don't pull me back
No, I don't ever wanna go back
I never wanna go back to what I used to be
Please don't take me back, back to my old ways
I'm going deeper and deeper in the Lord
I love the Lord
VERSE 3
As I spoke to my boy, my heart began to sink
Cos I realised I still loved him so much
I felt that I was strong but I thought I was gonna fall
So I began to pray Lord please make a way
Lord please make a way out of this temptation
You said you’ll be with me if I serve and follow you
CHORUS
I don't want him to pull me back
No, I don't ever wanna go back
I never wanna go back to be what I used to be
I don't want him to take me back, back to my old ways
I'm going deeper and deeper in the Lord
I love the Lord woah
VERSE 4
Suddenly I felt so strong as I spoke to him in the car
The anointing came, I felt like a super girl
The word of God began to flow, I told him about Jesus
How everything had changed since I met him
He said he wanted to know about my Jesus
And I led him to the Lord, today he's in the church
CHORUS
He couldn't pull me back
Instead I pulled him to the Lord
And he gave his life to Jesus Christ
He could not take me back
Can you believe what is happening
He is becoming a leader in the church
Who knows what the future holds
As we serve the Lord together
Serving the lord is so beautiful
So beautiful woah mhmm
CHORUS
He couldn't pull me back
Instead I pulled him to the Lord
And he gave his life to Jesus Christ
He could not take me back
Can you believe what is happening
He is becoming a leader in the church
Who knows what the future holds
As we serve the Lord together
Serving the lord is beautiful
So beautiful mhmm oh oh
