I was lost but Jesus found me-- Found the sheep that went astray; Threw His loving arms around me, Drew me back into His way. 2 I was bruised, but Jesus healed me; Faint was I from many a fall; Sight was gone, and fears possessed me, But He freed me from them all. Days of darkness still come o'er me, Sorrow's paths I often tread, But the Savior still is with me; By His hand I'm safely led. 3 He will keep me till the river Rolls its waters at my feet; Then He'll bear me safely over, Where the loved ones I shall meet. Yes, I'll sing the wondrous story Of the Christ who died for me-- Sing it with the saints in glory, Gathered by the crystal sea. Used With Tune: HYFRYDOL
