"When I Met You"

Lord when I first met You,
my life was lost and out of control.

Little did I know that
I was in danger of losing my soul.

But You and Your mercy,
came and rescued me.

For I was blind Lord,
But thank God now I see.

Lord I can't understand how
anyone could meet You and turn away from You.

Especially with all of the
wonderful things that You say and do.

Lord Jesus it is You alone
that makes my heart sing.

And I just want to stop and thank You
for all of the joy that You bring.

Lord there are those who have once loved You,
but now they have turned away.

And somehow they just can't understand,
why their lives are miserable today.

So Lord in Your loving kindness
I humbly ask You to have mercy.

Just as You once
Had mercy on me.

For satan is trying
to steal their souls.

They don't understand that Salvation
is more precious than the finest of gold.

Jesus Your Holy Word says that You wish that none would parish,
and that they would all return to You.

So Jesus I bow before Your throne,
and ask you to please have mercy on them too.
