Once I thought my mountain strong

Verse 1

Once I thought my mountain strong, Firmly fixed no more to move; Then my Saviour was my song, Then my soul was filled with love: Those were happy, golden days, Sweetly spent in prayer and praise.

Verse 2

Little then myself I knew, Little thought of Satan's power; Now I feel my sins renew, Now I feel the stormy hour: Sin has put my joys to flight, Sin has turned my day to night.

Verse 3

Saviour, shine and cheer my soul, Bid my dying hopes revive, Make my wounded spirit whole, Far away the tempter drive: Speak the word and set me free, Let me live alone to thee.
