IF I TOLD YOU ONCE

IF I TOLD YOU ONCE...

If I told you once, I've told you a thousand times
We're each guilty, committed our own crimes
Each of us has gone astray. Lost on our own way
In darkness, longing for Day, we need to pray
And the Shepherd will hear us, and heal us
For we were lost, now we belong to Jesus

If I told you once, I've told you over and over again
We can't do it all alone, and the devil ain't our friend
We're  all captured in our sin, it's a battle we can't win
We're waiting for our hope to begin, just let Him in
And the Lamb that dies for us, comes and revives us
For we were lost, now we belong to Jesus

And words can't convey,all I long to say
As I watch you walk away, I hit my knees to pray
Oh Spirit touch them now, I plea
Oh Spirit speak through me

If I told you once, I'll  tell you this once more
Jesus is the Truth, the Way, the Door
You're lost in a crowd,  silently screaming aloud
The darkness a shroud, falling before the proud
But King calls to to you, speaks and you see it too
For you were lost, Jesus ransomed you

If I told you once...maybe you'd be beside me
If I spoke, perhaps you'd be free
Father forgive my lack of words
If I told you once, and if you heard
AmenI
