197. LOVE FOUND A WAY
1. Wonderful love that rescued me,
Sunk deep in sin,
Guilty and vile as I could be-
No hope within;
When ev’ry ray of light had fled,
O glorious day!
Raising my soul from out the dead,
Love found a way.
Chorus:
Love found a way… to redeem my soul,…
Love found away… that could make me whole;…
Love sent my Lord.. to the cross of shame,
Love found a way, O praise His holy name!
2. Love bro’t my Saviour here to die
On Calvary,
For such a sinful wretch as I,
How can it be?
Love bridged the gulf ‘twixt me and heav’n,
Taught me to pray;
I am redeemed, set free, forgiv’n
Love found a way.
3. Love opened wide the gates of light
To heav’n’s domain,
Where in eternal pow’r and might
Jesus shall reign;
Love lifted me from depths of woe
To endless day,
There was no help in the earth below,
Love found a way.
1. Admit that you are a sinner. "For all [humans] have sinned, and comes short of the glory of God....[and] the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans 3:23)
2. Repent now. "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out ...[for] if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness " (Acts 3:19, 1 John 1:9)
3. Believe that God loves you and Jesus died for you. "God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet Sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8)
4. Invite Jesus into your life through prayer of faith. Jesus says, "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20)
