gone from my heart

Gone from my heart the world with all its charm;

now through the blood I‟m saved from sin‟s alarm;

down at the cross my heart is bending low,

the precious blood of Jesus washes white as snow.




I love Him, I love Him, because He

first loved me,

and purchased my salvation on

Mount Calvary.




Once I was far away, deep down in sin,

once was a slave to passions fierce within;

once was afraid to meet an angry God,

but now I‟m cleansed from every stain through Jesus‟ blood.




Once I was bound, but now I am set free,

once I was blind, but now the light I see;

once I was dead, but now in God I live,

and tell the world around the peace that He doth give
