Thanksgiving

Out of the darkness
Into the light
I once was spiritually blind
Now I have sight

I was a poor wretch
A sinner
But now I’m running the race
To be a winner

I was a child
Of Satan
With wickedness
I was overladen

Dead in sin
I was totally lost
I yearned for salvation
No matter the cost

One day God
Took a hold of me
I was born again
And set free

I couldn’t save myself
My heart was made of stone
God gave me a heart of flesh
From His throne

It was God’s sovereign grace
That transformed me
Through faith alone
Now I could truly see

I was justified by faith alone
Delivered from my wickedness
My sin was imputed to Christ
I received His perfect righteousness

I was transformed
A new creation
No longer was I a slave to sin
Misery was replaced with elation
