Forgiven

I was lost I had nowhere to go
Where to turn I just did not know
I was ship wrecked, no harbour in sight
Drifting on in an endless night
But as I looked beyond the horizon
I discovered a sun that was rising
He reached down from the sky above
And embraced me with his love
It is higher than the highest mountain
Fresher than a sparkling fountain
Deeper than the deepest sea
I can't believe what's happened to me
I can hardly keep this feeling inside
Because I feel like a newborn child
And the things that used to hurt me are gone
I've got strength enough to carry on
I lifted me eyes to heaven
And now I know that I am forgiven
It's all because of what he's done for me
By his love I've been set free
Lord, you give it to me
It is wider than the widest river
Finer than the finest silver
Purer than the purest gold
I'm talking about the love that fills my soul
It is higher than the highest mountain
Fresher than a sparkling fountain
Deeper than the deepest sea
I can't believe what's happened to me
I'm talking about the love that has set me free
