THE DAY I MET YOU

Until I met You, Lord, I was running away,
from the stress and the turmoil, that I faced every day;
Where I was going, didn't know, didn't care,
searching for happiness, I couldn't find anywhere!

Always feeling so empty, so lost and alone,
peace and contentment, I'd never known;
Then one day I met You at the crossroad somewhere,

You reached out and touched me and told me you cared!


You said that You loved me, that for me You had died;
That You took on Yourself all my sin and self pride;
You shed your blood, hanging there on that cross
And You did it for me and all who were lost!

You said You'd been with me, all through the years
And You'd like to remove all my doubts and my fears;
My tears started falling as I knelt at Your feet,
for I knew I'd been living in total defeat!

You washed me and cleansed me and made my heart whole,
And I felt Your love move me, deep down in my soul!
Now You are my Lord and the keeper of my heart;
Nothing on earth, can ever keep us apart!

You've given me peace, like I have never known;
Now You're Lord of my life and I am Your own!
I've been through the fire, been tested and tried;
But You've been through it with me, right her by my side!

I'll never be lost or lonely again,
for now I have You, Lord living within!
