This is true declaration of the good news of Jesus offering rich hope for wretched saints.
I once was lost in darkest night | Yet thought I knew the way
The sin that promised joy and life | Had led me to the grave
I had no hope that You would own | A rebel to Your will
And if You had not loved me first | I would refuse You still
But as I ran my hell-bound race | Indifferent to the cost
You looked upon my helpless state | And led me to the cross
And I beheld God’s love displayed | You suffered in my place
You bore the wrath reserved for me | Now all I know is grace
Hallelujah! All I have is Christ | Hallelujah! Jesus is my life
Now, Lord, I would be Yours alone | And live so all might see
The strength to follow Your commands | Could never come from me
Oh Father, use my ransomed life | In any way You choose
And let my song forever be | My only boast is You
