In long years passed,
Because of deep hurt,
My downcast soul was so dark.
But You are my redeemer Lord,
You granted true repentance
And sweetly restored my heart.
.
You and only You, Lord,
Can turn a person’s heart,
Like rivers of water in Your hand.
You healed all the sorrow,
Took all pain away,
You abolished all shame from my land.
.
You turned mourning into dancing,
Turned old sackcloth into joy.
The enemy’s fodder You destroyed!
Your glorious might,
Your unfailing love,
Your faithfulness were all You employed.
.
I’m grateful, Lord, for Your mercy so dear,
For Your Word,
For Your power divine.
I’ll walk in humility,
Thanksgiving and love,
Because You, Beloved Savior, are mine.
.
Do you have sin in your past
That is causing you pain?
Or a hurt that has never truly healed?
Give it all to the King
Who crushed satan underfoot,
That evil one who destroys,
Kills and steals.
.
Jesus is able to make all things new,
He can refresh you by His Spirit, like a dove.
He can heal you, forgive you,
Wash you whiter than snow,
Embrace you in His all-consuming love.
