The Sweetest Sound

(8/8/12) The sweetest sound I ever heard Was the power of his words. He took me out of the clutches of hell And in my heart - he does dwell. I found myself falling down He picked me up off the ground wiped me off and set me down. I recalled many of the sermons That my preacher had said Of how JESUS raised LAZARUS from the dead If he could raise him so easily Then helping me was a breeze So many miracles that he had created Left the rabbi’s devastated. But more than the rabbi’s devastation I had become so elated- that I was picked Up in my hour of weakness and despair “Showing me that the LORD does care.” He cares about all that believe in him Including the ones who had sinned He has no preference to age or gender If to him your heart you will surrender.
