Once I was straying
In sin's dark valley
No hope within could I see
They searched through Heaven
And they found a Savior
To save a poor, lost soul like me
Oh, what a Savior
Oh, hallelujah
His heart was broken on Calvary
His hands were nail scarred
His side was riven
He gave His life's blood for even me
Death's chilly waters
I'll soon be crossing
But His hand will lead me safe o'er
Then I'll join the chorus
In that great city
I'll sing up there forever and evermore
Oh, what a Savior
Oh, hallelujah
His heart was broken on Calvary
His hands were nail scarred
His side was riven
He gave His life's blood for even me
He gave His life's blood
Oh, what a Savior
Oh, hallelujah
His heart was broken on Calvary
His hands were nail scarred
His side was riven
He gave His life's blood for even me
Yes, He gave His life's blood
He gave His life's blood
Jesus, He gave His life's blood for even me
Oh, what a Savior!
