He Saved Me

When I was drowning in 
the depth of destruction,
His raised me up with the 
rope of redemption.
When I was sinking in the 
sea of sin and sorrow,
He rescued me with the 
rays of the rainbow.
When I was wallowing in 
wants and woes,
He found me and freed me 
from my foes.
Oh, now I see His 
salvation...a special sight,
I now live in the land of 
liberty and Lasting Light.
My faults are forgiven and 
my future favoured,
My life is lifted in His love, I 
am not laboured.
I have peace in Him who is 
head of principalities,
He armoured me in His 
arms in my daily activities.
Glory to God, who rescused 
us when we roam...
And in Heaven He has 
prepared us a holy home.
Amen
