Lyrics
Verse 1: Out of my bondage, sorrow and night, Jesus I come, Jesus I come; into thy freedom, gladness and light, Jesus I come to thee; out of my sickness into thy health, out of my want and into thy wealth, out of my sin and into thyself, Jesus I come to thee.
Verse 2: Out of my shameful failure and loss, Jesus I come, Jesus I come, into thy glorious gain of thy cross, Jesus I come to thee, out of earth’s sorrow into thy balm, out of life’s storms and into thy calm, out of distress to jubilent psalm, Jesus I come to thee.
Verse 3: Out of the fear and dread of the tomb, Jesus I come, Jesus I come, into the joy and light of thy home, Jesus I come to thee; out of the depths of ruin untold, into the peace of thy sheltering fold, ever thy glorious face to behold, Jesus I come to thee.
Coda: Amen.
