一 救主耶穌由天而來,為要使我蒙祂慈愛,
祂經羞辱罪惡壓害,伸張恩手救我。
(副)從污泥中祂拯救我,用慈愛手祂拯救我,
從黑暗中進入光明,讚美主名,祂拯救我。
二 恩主呼聲為時已久,惜我硬心不肯回頭,
我今醒悟痛悔前咎,蒙主赦免救我。
三 主為我戴荊棘冠冕,兩手被釘滴下血點,
因我陷在罪中可憐,主伸愛手救我。
四 現在我靈快樂平安,因我居處安全無險,
我真難用口舌述傳,耶穌如何救我。
1. In loving kindness Jesus came
My soul in mercy to reclaim,
and from the depths of sin and shame
Thro' grace He lifted me.
Refrain
From sinking sand He lifted me,
With tender hand He lifted me,
From shades of night to plains of light,
O praise His name, He lifted me!
2. He called me long before I heard,
Before my sinful heart was stirred,
But when I took Him at His word,
Forgiv'n He lifted me.
3. His brow was pierced with many a thorn,
His hands by cruel nails were torn,
When from my guilt and grief, forlorn,
In love He lifted me.
4. Now on a higher plane I dwell,
And with my soul know 'tis well;
Yet how or why, I cannot tell,
He should have lifted me.
