I HAVE BEEN RESCUED

Some people ask me why I’m so happy even when sorrows press on

They see me laughin’ while the storm is raging

They wonder where I get my song

But they cannot see the trouble I faced not so very long ago

Or to comprehend the joy that’s within, There’s something that they need to know.

Chorus:

I’ve been saved from the flames of a hot burning fire

Lifted from the tempest as the waves grew higher

Sheltered from the desert, dusty and dry,

I was given a drink of water when I thought I would die

Delivered from the danger of a dark lion’s den

Given new life in exchange for my sin

Set free, forgiven, I’ve been born again

Oh yes! I have been rescued.

I used to feel trouble

My sorrows were double as the burdens of life tracked me down

I was defeated ‘till I saw what I needed

Then His tender mercy I found

And though life is rough, I’m not giving up Even when I’m tested and tried

I’ll not waste time doubting

I’m gonna go shouting I’ve crossed to the winning side

(Chorus)

Ending:

Set free, forgiven, I’ve been born again


Oh yes! I have been rescued.
