Lyrics For I Was Far - Onething Live, Anna Blanc

For I Was Far

for i was far away and dead in sin
i had no hope at all to live again
and then You came and drew me close in love
You washed away my guilt and filthy stains
this is my story, my testimony
filled with redemption, a life with hope
i can’t be silent when i think about it
my undeserving heart it overthrows
for i was far away and dead in sin
i had no hope at all to live again
and then You came and drew me close in love
You washed away my guilt and filthy stains
You took this broken, unworthy servant
made new in mercy, You call me friend
i just can’t hide it, i have to shout it
i will be singing till the end
for i was far away and dead in sin
i had no hope at all to live again
and then You came and drew me close in love
You washed away my guilt and filthy stains
i am a pilgrim, a stranger on earth
keeping my eyes fixed upon the prize
i sing this song to remind my heart
the grace forever found before Your eyes
and when the day breaks, and heaven’s life weighs
my soul to look on the One i love
my heart will burst forth in rapture’s praises
my thankful heart i give this Worthy One
and when the day breaks, and heaven’s life weighs
my soul to lolk on the One I love
my heart will burst forth in rapture’s praises
my thankful heart i give this Worthy One
for i was far away and dead in sin
i had no hope at all to live again
and then You came and drew me close in love
You washed away my guilt and filthy stains.
You washed away my guilt and filthy stains.
You washed away my guilt and filthy stains.
