When He Reached Down His Hand for Me

Once my soul was astray from the 5 heavenly 1 way
I was wretched and 5 vile as could 1 be
But my Savior in love, gave me 4 peace from a 1 bove
When he reached down His 5 hand for 1 me

Chorus
When the Savior reached 4 down for me
When he reached down His 2 hand for 5 me
I was 1 lost and undone, without 4 God or His 1 Son
When he reached down His 5 hand for 1 me

I was near to despair when He came to me there
And He showed me that I could be free
Then He lifted my feet, gave me gladness complete
When He reached down His hand for me

How my heart doth rejoice when I hear His sweet voice
And the tempest to Him I can flee
There to lean on His arms, safe secure from all harm
Since he reached down his hand for me
