I Was a Stranger

I was a stranger and lost in the night,

Foot sore and weary, I longed for the light;

Jesus found me wand'ring in dark paths of sin.

Tho' I was a stranger, He took me in.

I was a stranger to love so divine,

But now I am singing for Jesus who's mine;

No more shall I wander in dark paths of sin;

When I was a stranger, He took me in.

Far is the path of life's journey I walk,

Too much to bear are the burdens of life;

Reaching my wit's end I fell to the ground,

When I fell over He came to save me.

I was a stranger to love so divine,

But now I am singing for Jesus who's mine;

No more shall I wander in dark paths of sin;

When I was a stranger, He took me in.
