I Was Once Far Away Christian Song Lyrics in English

I was once far away from the Saviour
and as vile as a sinner could be;
and I wondered if Christ the Redeemer
could save a poor sinner like me.

I wandered on in the darkness,
not a ray of light could I see;
and the thought filled my heart with
sadness,
there‟s no hope for a sinner like me.

And then, in that dark lonely hour,
a voice sweetly whispered to me,
saying, ‘Christ the Redeemer has power
to save a poor sinner like thee.’
I listened: and lo! „twas the Saviour
that was speaking so kindly to me;
I cried, ‘I‟m the chief of sinners,
Thou canst save a poor sinner like me!’

I then fully trusted in Jesus;
and oh, what a joy came to me!
My heart was filled with His praises
for saving a sinner like me.

No longer in darkness I‟m walking,
for the light is now shining on me,
and now unto others, I‟m telling
how He saved a poor sinner like me.

And when life‟s journey is over,
and I the dear Saviour shall see,
I‟ll praise Him forever and ever,
for saving a sinner like me. ……
