| All as sheep are gone astrayEach one is gone in his own separate way
The light of the Gospel has cast its rays Hear the voice of the master; He calls today
It gladdens my heart to do your service To snatch the life of a man as from abyss To release the soul the devil often hardens The kingdom of God; surely it widens
The sacrifice of Christ has set us free But for His love, where would we be We once were blind but now we see For us He’s risen once slain on the tree
We with eyes yet were blind we grope in vanity hoping to find Something perhaps to satisfy the mind Alas from above, TRUE LOVE; none of its kind
Flesh of my flesh, Bone of my Bones Such intimacy desired but then I was alone Until for me the king left His throne To redeem my soul that we may be one

Today, I wake by the power of Him who loved me
Today, I live by the assurance of Him who keeps me
Today, I excel by the power of Him who works in me
Today, I pray to the one who by grace, saved me
Today, I am strong because of Him who healed me
Today, I am purposeful because of Him who called me
Today, I shine because of Him who glorified me
Today, I AM WHAT I AM BECAUSE HE DIED AND ROSE FOR ME
My heart, the lord has been faithful to me
My heart, the lord has been good; can’t you see?
For where you are is far from where you were
And where you will be, He’ll be the one to take you there
