He Ransomed Me (Sparks)

Composer: Burl Sparks,1929

I once was lost in sin’s dark night

God’s love I spurned

I wan­dered from the right

Rejecting Him

I know not why

The One who for my soul did bleed and die.

He ran­somed me

from sin He set me free;

He paid my debt on rug­ged Cal­va­ry;

He’s tak­en all my sin and guilt away

And turned my dark­ness in­to day.

He drew me to His kind em­brace

One look into His bless­èd

lov­ing face

I saw the thorn prints on His brow

Heart brok­en then

I at His feet did bow.

I nev­er dreamed I could pos­sess

Such peace and joy as now is in my breast;

The Christ who set my poor soul free

Can save your soul and give you vic­to­ry.
