Alarmed! at what I used to be
The way my life was spent
So self-centred I failed to see
Heaven was discontent
God to me, was total unknown
Completely out of mind
With ailing soul, with heart of stone
I lived and walked as blind
People I knew, seemed all the same
Selfish, the same as I
Still deluded of sin and shame
What happens, when we die
Graves, were the end of everything
Death was a peaceful state
No hint, no thought no future sting
Life today, could create
So are devils with everyone
Satan! deceiver of all
Hiding Jesus, God's Lamb, God's Son
Before He comes to call
How relieved was I to know this
How blessed my desperate soul
God's warning voice, Christ's healing kiss
Revealing hell, was my goal
Frantically , searching within me
Pondering all things done
Seeking Love's Grace to set me free
Salvation might be won
God saw my heart, my change of mind
My trust, my faith acquired
How fervently Life's Way to find
Jesus always desired.....
