Author: Charles H. Gabriel Hymnal: Yes, Lord! #453 (1982) First Line: In lovingkindness Jesus came Refrain First Line: From sinking sand He lifted me Lyrics: 1 In lovingkindness Jesus came
My soul in mercy to reclaim,
And from the depths of sin and shame
Through 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,
Forgiven He lifted me. [Refrain]
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. [Refrain]
4 Now on a higher plane I dwell,
And with my soul I know ’tis well;
Yet how or why, I cannot tell,
He should have lifted me. [Refrain] Topics: Testimony, Witness and Evangelism Languages: English Tune Title: [In lovingkindness Jesus came]
He Lifted Me
