Love Found a Way

Author: W. S. Martin Hymnal: Alexander's Gospel Songs #125 (1908) First Line: No hope had I, no light within Refrain First Line: Love found a way my life to save Lyrics: 1 No hope had I, no light within Till Jesus saved me from my sin; I wandered on from day to day, To bring me back love found a way. Refrain: Love found a way my life to save, His precious blood Christ freely gave; For years I prayed and hoped and tried, But now I trust the Crucified. 2 My burdened heart found no relief, And deeper grew my pain and grief; My heave debt I could not pay, But, praise the Lord! Love found a way. [Refrain] 3 I look to Christ as on the tree He bore my sins and guilt for me; In tender tones I heard Him say: “My child, to save, love found a way.” [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [No hope had I, no light within]
