Love Found a Way

Avis B. Christiansen • English

Primary Scripture: 1 John 3:1

Verse 1

Wonderful love that rescued me, Sunk deep in sin, Guilty and vile as I could be No hope within; When ev'ry ray of light had fled, O glorious day! Raising my soul from out the dead, Love found a way.

Chorus

Love found a way to redeem my soul, Love found a way that could make me whole; Love sent my Lord to the cross of shame, Love found a way, O praise His holy name!

Verse 2

Love bro't my Saviour here to die On Calvary, For such a sinful wretch as I, How can it be? Love bridged the gulf 'twixt me and Heav'n, Taught me to pray; I am redeemed, set free, forgiv'n, Love found a way.

Chorus

Love found a way to redeem my soul, Love found a way that could make me whole; Love sent my Lord to the cross of shame, Love found a way, O praise His holy name!

Verse 3

Love opened wide the gates of light To Heav'n's domain, Where in eternal pow'r and might Jesus shall reign; Love lifted me from depths of woe To endless day, There was no help in earth below, Love found a way.

Chorus

Love found a way to redeem my soul, Love found a way that could make me whole; Love sent my Lord to the cross of shame, Love found a way, O praise His holy name!
