In lovingkindness Jesus came, My soul in mercy to reclaim, And from the depths of sin and shame Thro' 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!
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.
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.
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.
BIBLE PASSAGE:
2 He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings.
