THE NIGHT THAT I MET JESUS

vvvvvv

A world of sin and heartache was the only life I'd known

with a broken heart and shattered dreams, no one to call my own

my life was nothing but emptiness, my soul began to plea

The Spirit  came I called His name, and from sin I was set free

vvvvvv

The night that I met Jesus, was a night I'll not forget

I was a battered sin sick sinner, living a life of pure regret

I was bound by chains of darkness, lost and dead in sin

Then the Spirit came, I called His name, and Jesus entered in

vvvvvv

Now a heart that once was broken, has been mended by God's love

shattered dreams have been replaced by the promise of heaven above

loneliness no longer haunts the corridors of my mind

since Jesus came I'm not the same, now I'm His for all time
