Listen from:
He came to earth, the Son of God,
Stooping to poverty indeed;
This stricken scene His footsteps trod,
To meet my poverty and need;
He came to bridge the man-made breach,
Good tidings to the poor to preach.
He came to heal my broken heart,
To banish sadness from my breast,
To bind my wounds and bid me start
The blessed path of perfect rest.
He came—He came to set me free,
To bring salvation unto me.
He came with such unmeasured love,
To bring deliverance to the bound;
He stooped in mercy from above,
To save me on redemption ground.
He came—He came to rescue me,
To free me from captivity.
He came to me though I was blind,
Groping in darkness far away;
My wayward, wandering heart to find,
Sight to restore and lead to day.
He came—He came, He gave me sight,
And turned my darkness into light.
