The Lord gave me beauty for ashes, His oil of joy for mourning and distress, A garment of praise for a spirit of heaviness. In the Loving Savior, I found peace and blessed rest. There was nothing good within, Until Christ came into my life and heart. He took away my sorrow and sin. Only He could give a brand new start. Weary and worn, we walk alone, as we journey through this world; Not realizing Christ is there all the time. Then, one day, we hear the Savior calling our name, Saying, "Child I have claimed you. Come to me and be mine." We run to the Savior, who has arms opened wide; Finding all we need in His salvation and love. He gives us a new life, delivered from sin and strife. He gives the very best, sent from our Father, up above. |
