When Life of Sin Takes My Soul


When life of sin takes my soul
Hone my sorrows to make my goal
To set that which I cannot see
The Great I Am, my surest need

My hardened heart blinds my eyes
Still Your grace conceives me blithe
My weakened flesh binds my walk
Amazing grace, Your love winged me stalk

Captivated love, I tread to the Gate
Incredible mercy, You patiently wait
Til I reach You, and hear You say for certain
"Well done, my good and faithful servant."

Christ our unshakable Cornerstone
Take Your everlasting throne
Forever and a day, hear Your servants' songs
An endless Hallelujah to You belongs

When life of sin takes my soul
Let Your Word fill me whole
To set that which I will soon see
The indelible Shalom, my surest glee
