Jesus has saved me from sin!
Praise to His name, what a Savior!
Cleansing without and within!
Refrain:
Why do I sing about Jesus?
Why is He precious to me?
He is my Lord and my Savior;
Dying, He set me free!
2 Only a glimpse of His goodness;
That was sufficient for me.
Only one look at the Savior -
Then was my spirit set free. [Refrain]
3 He is the Fairest of fair ones;
He is the Lily, the Rose.
Rivers of mercy surround Him;
Grace, love and pity He shows. [Refrain] Topics: Christ Atonement, Crucifixion, Suffering and Death; Walking with God Peace and Joy Used With Tune: KETCHUM
