To God they said I couldn’t come <br />In Christ I’d have no part <br />But now they must be feeling dumb <br />For Christ is in my heart <br /> <br /> <br />They said my sin my wicked ways <br />Would see me burn in hell <br />But now I serve the Lord these days <br />They’ve something else to tell <br /> <br /> <br />But once there words were just and right <br />My life was in decay <br />Yet now I’m glad I’ve seen the Light <br />God’s Lamb turned night to day <br /> <br /> <br />In darkness now I walk no more <br />Through love my eyes can see <br />The reason that I’m living for <br />God’s shown so plain to me <br /> <br /> <br />Salvation came to me by grace <br />Whilst still in filth and shame <br />But now I’m speaking face to face <br />With Christ who knows my name <br /> <br /> <br />My righteousness is not my own <br />My love is God’s divine <br />I walk in truth, but not alone <br />For Jesus’ hand’s in mine <br /> <br /> <br />There’s none so lost God cannot reach <br />No sinner too far gone <br />There’s none so bad God cannot teach <br />Through Jesus Christ His Son <br /> <br /> <br />Today my God’s no longer strange <br />I’m glad my Jesus came <br />If you dear friend need help to change <br />Just call His holy name.<br /><br />Michael P.
