he brought me out

My heart was distressed ‘neath
Jehovah’s dread frown, And low in the
pit where my sins dragged me down;
I
cried to the Lord from the deep miry
clay, Who tenderly brought me out to golden day.

CHORUS
He brought me out of the miry
clay,
He set my feet on the Rock to
stay;
He puts a song in my soul today,
A song of praise, hallelujah!

He placed me upon the strong Rock by
His side, My steps were established and here I’ll abide;
No danger of
falling while here I remain, But stand by His grace until the crown I gain.

He gave me a song, ‘twas a new song of praise, By day and by night its sweet
notes I will raise;
My heart’s overflowing, I’m happy and free, I’ll
praise my Redeemer, who has rescued me.

I’ll sing of his wonderful mercy to me, I’ll praise him till all men his goodness shall see;
I’ll sing of salvation at home


and abroad, Till many shall hear the truth and trust in God.
