1. Lost to God I wandered,
With no fear to sin,
Often judgements thundered,
Warnings from within;
Then I heard of Jesus,
Of His love to save,
Oh, His grace is precious,
He my sins forgave.
CHORUS
I’m saved, I’m healed,
I’m filled, I’m changed,
By His grace and glory,
I am pressing on.
2. Once I was a sinner,
Life had lost it’s charms,
Who will free the prisoner?
Fear did raise alarm;
Light then came forth streaming,
To my darkened soul,
Bliss of Heav’n perfecting,
Leads me to the goal.
3. Life was once a struggle,
Vexing thoughts unsolved,
When I tried to wangle,
Found myself involved;
Loving hand of mercy,
Arm of God to save,
Clothed me in His beauty,
When His life He gave.
4. Hell-bound path was easy,
Subtle ways unknown,
Will it e’er be rosy,
God, if I disown?
Off’ring me a Kingdom,
Came He from above;
Is not this the freedom
From the God of love?
5. Come then erring sinner,
Time to seek the Lord;
Why in doubt still linger?
Why live in discord?
Jesus is the answer,
Light of life is He,
Everlasting Father,
Yearns to rescue thee.
