Chaplain was unable to post this because of a glitch, so I am posting this for him. :)
lyrics

There's a man I used to know,
not so very long ago
Every deceant thing forgotten,
looking up to see the bottom.

Guilty of every sin and more.
Climbing up to reach the floor.
Cussing, drinking, chacing, smoking,
sick and tired and lost and broken.

Who was that man I knew so well,
staggering stumbling in to Hell?
Hard to believe how he used to be.
Who was that man?
He used to be me.

But Jesus knew me from the start.
He saved my soul and He changed my heart.
Now I thank and I praise Him so,
for saving that man that I used to know.

Who was that man I knew so well,
staggering stumbling in to Hell?
Hard to believe how he used to be.
Who was that man?
He used to be me.
