How different the world
Now seems to me
Not quite so what it used to be
Not sure when my heart
Found its way in Thee
When my days and my ways
Knew I truly was free.
How different my thoughts
And my ways have become
Not so sure when this real
Change in me had begun
But I know Lord my heart
And my soul you have won
And I’ll serve You and seek You
Till my days are but done.
So gently, so softly
Your love it consumes
So sweetly, so serenely
it invites me to bloom
And I’ve come Lord to know
For it’s clear as day to me
These eyes once were blind
Now my heart clings to Thee.
How different the stars
In the sky now appear
Not so sure when I knew
That You held me so near
Now the world is alight
And Your wonder is clear
I’m reminded be still
That I need never fear.
How different the song
That my heart daily sings
Not so sure when it knew
All the good, true life brings
Now It’s shelter I find
In the stretch of your wings
And It’s Joy I have found
In The King above Kings
So gently, so softly
Your love it consumes
So sweetly, so serenely
It invites me to bloom
And I’ve come Lord to know
For it’s clear as day to me
These eyes once were blind
Now my heart clings to Thee.
