Sacred Songs and Solos Lyrics
Hymn No.850

First Line: I came a wanderer, and alone,

I came a wanderer, and alone,
My way was dark as night ;
I looked to Thee, O blessed One,
And then I found the light.

O Jesus, Saviour, Lamb of God,
How much I owe to Thee,
For all the wonders of Thy grace*
And all Thy love to me !

2 I came with all my doubts and fears,
No hope but in Thy Word ;
And while I gazed upon the blood,
Thy pardoning voice I heard.

3 Oh, may the Spirit's power be felt
In this poor heart of mine,
And make Thy Word my lamp and light,
My shield and strength divine.

4 Oh, teach me, Lord, Thy voice to know,
Amid the surging throng;
Be Thou my hope, my life, my joy,
My everlasting song.
