I WAS once far away from the Savior,
And as vile as a sinner could be;
And I wondered if Christ the Redeemer
Could save a poor sinner like me.
I wandered on in the darkness,
Not a ray of light could I see;
And the thought filled my heart with sadness,
There's no hope for a sinner like me.
And then, in that dark lonely hour,
A voice sweetly whispered to me
Saying, "Christ the Redeemer has power
To save a poor sinner like thee."
I listened, and lo! 'twas the Savior
That was speaking so kindly to me;
I cried, "I'm the chief of sinners,
Thou canst save a poor sinner like me!"
I then fully trusted in Jesus;
And oh, what' a joy came to me!
My heart was filled with His praises,
For saving a sinner like me.
No longer in darkness I'm walking,
For the light is now shining on me;
And now unto others I'm telling
How He save a poor sinner like me.
And when life's journey is over,
And I my dear Savior shall see,
I'll praise Him forever and ever,
For saving a sinner like me.
Jesus said: "Him that cometh to Me I will in no wise cast out." John 6:37
"(NOTHING) shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord."
Romans 8:39
