In Sin I Once Had Wandered

In sin I once had wan­dered

All wea­ry

sad

and lone

Till Je­sus through His mer­cy

Adopted me His own.

E’er since I learned to trust Him

His grace doth make me free

And now I feel His par­don

He’s ev­ery­thing to me.

He’s ev­ery­thing to me

From sin He sets me free

His peace and love my por­tion

Through all eter­ni­ty!

He’s ev­ery­thing to me

More than I dreamed could be.

O praise His name for­ev­er!

He’s ev­ery­thing to me.

In sin no more I’ll wand­er;

He’s pi­lot

friend

and guide;

He brings me joy and sing­ing;

His Spir­it doth ab­ide.

A bless­èd

lov­ing Sav­ior

The Lamb of Cal­va­ry!

He pur­chased my re­demp­tion.

He’s ev­ery­thing to me.

No long­er will I stray from

His ten­der

lov­ing care;

Like Him to be my pur­pose

My aim

my con­stant pray­er.

And when He bids me wel­come

Throughout eter­ni­ty

I’ll praise His name for­ev­er.

He’s ev­ery­thing to me.
