Author: Rev. Robert Murray McCheyne Hymnal: International Song Service #243 (1895) First Line: I once was a stranger to grace and to God Lyrics: 1 I once was a stranger to grace and to God,
I knew not my danger, and felt not my load;
Though friends spoke in rapture of Christ on the tree,
Jehovah, my Saviour, seemed nothing to me.
2 When free grace awoke me by light from on high,
Then legal fears shook me, I trembled to die;
No refuge, no safety, in self could I see;
Jehovah, Thou only my Saviour must be. Languages: English
