I once was blind but now I see The Son of God who died for me From the grave He rose in victory Now I’m alive, eternally. Forever singing of His love This treasure sent from heaven above I was lost in darkness, all alone Carrying burdens on my own. Then mercy found me, called me by name Jesus took my shackles, broke every chain In the wonder of this love divine I am His and He is mine. I was lost in darkness, all alone Carrying burdens, reaping what I’d sown Then His light shone, calling me by name He pursued me, took away my shame. Not by my works or anything I’ve done But by the sacrifice of God the Son The cross stands empty, the stone rolled away Death was conquered on that matchless day. His mercy found me, called me by name Jesus took my shackles, broke every chain In the wonder of this love divine I am His and He is mine. What can separate us from this love? Nothing in this world or heights above Forever held in God’s embrace Saved by mercy, kept by grace.
