HE LIFTED ME
1. In loving
kindness Jesus came
My soul in mercy to
reclaim,
and from the depths
of sin and shame
Thro' grace He
lifted me.
Refrain
From sinking sand
He lifted me,
With tender hand He
lifted me,
From shades of
night to plains of light,
O praise His name,
He lifted me!
2. He called me
long before I heard,
Before my sinful
heart was stirred,
But when I took Him
at His word,
Forgiv'n He lifted
me.
3. His brow was
pierced with many a thorn,
His hands by cruel
nails were torn,
When from my guilt
and grief, forlorn,
In love He lifted
me.
4. Now on a higher
plane I dwell,
And with my soul
know 'tis well;
Yet how or why, I
cannot tell,
He should have
lifted me.
