Holy is He!

Deep in the darkness God found me in sin.
He said, "Come my child, I command you, come in!"
My blind eyes He opened, my cold heart He warmed;
He showed me that I was a vessel He'd formed
for His glory. Yes! That's why I was born!
For years in this world I'd been grieved and forlorn.
I didn't know why I had suffered so much.
My broken down heart His mighty hand touched.

In light of Christ's death, I've not suffered ... not really.
Christ had to die to bring about my healing.
He was tortured, spit upon, beaten and bruised.
For the depth of my sin He was wrongly accused.

Now my heart He has changed but the wickedness clings.
My soul He has saved but my sinfulness seems
to wrap itself around me---binding me fast.
Only to Him can this turmoil be cast.
The sin can't hang on because Christ is my Master.
As I grow in the Lord repentance comes faster.
He quickens me by the strength of His might.
Only through Him will I fight the good fight.

Christ died on the cross.  I know this is true.
He died to save me.  He said, "I want you!"
Why He chose me I'll never fully know.
Only through His power will I love, give, and grow
in the grace and the knowledge of Jesus the Christ.
He is my everything, the first and the last.
All things for Him is what His Word says.
I'll open my mouth to give Him His praise.

Father, Son, and the Holy Ghost---
This God I extol with the heavenly host
who bow down before him crying, "Holy" is He!
Not once but three times "Holy" is He!
