It Was Jesus

Author: James Rowe Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11549 First Line: My path was always rough and drear Refrain First Line: It was Jesus, my Savior Lyrics: 1 My path was always rough and drear, My soul was always sad; But now my path is smooth and bright, My soul forever glad. Refrain: It was Jesus, my Savior Who wrought this change in me; It was Jesus, my Savior, Blest Lamb of Calvary; I came to Him just as I was, From sin He set me free; It was Jesus, my Savior, Who wrought this change in me. 2 My soul was stained with many sins, I lived in fear and dread; But now my soul is free from stain, And all my fears have fled. [Refrain] 3 O wandering one in paths of sin, The Savior calls to thee; He longs to give you peace and rest, From sin to set you free. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [My path was always rough and drear]
