Text: | In Loving-Kindness Jesus Came |
Author: | Charlotte G. Homer |
Tune: | HE LIFTED ME |
Composer: | Chas. H. Gabriel |
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.
Chorus:
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. [Chorus]
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. [Chorus]
