Check out the official music video for ‘Before I Knew Jesus’ by Leanna Crawford.
“Before I knew Jesus, all I knew was all my shame, unloved was my life story
Unworthy was my name, had no future, just a long and broken past
But I’m standing here today to say, Jesus changed all that
Now I know freedom, now I know hope, now I know love that will never let go
Forever forgiven, forever I’m changed, and there’s no going back to the day”
What a wonderful song with a beautiful message. We are forever changed when we let Jesus into our lives!
‘Before I Knew Jesus’ was written by Leanna Crawford, Matthew West, and Jeff Pardo. In the music video, Leanna is singing in a beautiful forest, and at the end of the song, 2 Corinthians 5:17 pops up on the screen. “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!”
“Thank you guys so much for watching!” writes Leanna on her YouTube page. “Jesus is so faithful to each one of us, whether you've known Him your whole life or just met Him yesterday. There is no going back to the day before Jesus!”
According to her YouTube page, Leanna Crawford has spent the past two and a half years “writing, touring and singing with some of the biggest names in the Christian music industry. She’s gained more experience than many artists do in a decade, and while her music certainly displays the vocal and songwriting talent of a rising star in CCM, her grounded and honest lyrics make her feel more friend than star and more approachable than untouchable.”
“I hope [listeners] feel that I care about them even if I don’t know them,” says Leanna, “that they would feel loved and encouraged.”
We hope that this beautiful and sincere song was able to uplift your spirits today!
